Donald Embers He criticized the social network once again excitementInside a tweet It was published on his personal account on Monday. This time, the President of the United States addresses the trending section of the social network, which he thinks is both too much about him and always negative. A situation at the same time ridiculous, illegal and extremely unfair », according to the current tenant of the White House.
Trends on a Twitter account are determined by an algorithm that cross-references the user’s subscriptions, interests, and location. Based on this information, The algorithm determines all the popular topics of the momenteven those at a certain time, so that everyone personalized access to the latest discussion topics on social media. With all due respect to the President of the United States: Trends are merely reflections of what social network users post.
Donald Trump once again accuses Twitter of being unfounded
Donald Trump often accuses Twitter of being biased against his political stance, The latter also did not provide any evidence or real facts about possible violations of the law by trends. Unless the algorithm Twitter uses to create personalized trends one day violates the social network’s terms of use, Nothing illegal has been reported to date.
D. Trump’s little war on the social network is not new. At the end of 2019, Jack Dorsey’s social network had already begun to tighten its rules, under Trump’s watchful eye. In May, a tweet of his was reported by Twitter for “advocating violence.” Last March, Twitter even issued its first warning about a video retweeted by Donald Trump’s official account. This was a first for the time, especially since he regularly uses the platform to share lies.
This new tweet also comes shortly after a campaign video was retweeted by the US president, which used Linkin Park music without the band’s permission. Twitter once again censors video shared by Donald Trump due to copyright infringement. As for the social network Snapchat, it has no longer been promoting posts from the American president since the beginning of June.
It’s so disgusting to watch Twitter’s so-called “Trends” where there are so many trends about me and never a good one. They look for anything they can find, make it as bad as possible and try to make it trend by blowing it up. It’s really ridiculous, illegal and of course very unfair!
