EVIDENCE: Social Media Companies Censor Pro-Life Groups
Yesterday, the Senate held a hearing into the unreasonable practices of tech giants, such as Google. Of course, the mainstream media and these companies regularly deny that bias exists, however we have evidence. And even if the business will not clearly confess all the time that they censor posts, there sure are a lot of ‘makes you believe’ type issues that we see and have actually personally experienced.
1.. Censorship by Pinterest
Pinterest honestly prohibited Live Action’s Pinterest page and their actions were exposed by whistleblower Eric Cochran. It gets even worse. After pro-life groups, led by Trainees for Life groups swore to publish Live Action material on our own pages, Pinterest alerted Students for Life that a basic graphic about vaccines and conscience was eliminated. We have actually given that reposted the graphic and since today, is still up on our page.
2. Kristan Hawkins’ tweets have been identified as ‘delicate material.’
Censorship, much?
