Default Twitter Suspends 125,000 'Terrorism' Accounts


About Bloody Time

[Twitter has suspended more than 125,000 accounts for threatening
or promoting terrorist acts - most related to Islamic State.
The accounts have been shut down over the past eight months as social media firms
respond to pressure from the US government for them to be more proactive.
Twitter has been using spam-fighting technology to seek out accounts.
Islamic State is known to use social media to radicalise and lure recruits,
prompting Twitter to "significantly" increase the size of its reviewing team.]
