So Twitter's approach seems more in line with YouTube's here. But now that the Taliban controls the levers of power in Afghanistan, we have the world leaders policy to contend with. Does this policy apply to the Taliban? I haven't gotten an answer on that yet. — PolitiTweet.org

When Twitter has taken down extremist content en masse in the past, it typically focuses on the content shared by an account rather than an account holder's affiliation or identity. Here's an example of an ISIS-related takedown in 2016. https://t.co/bcjHElvD73 https://t.co/FLdzSwn1UT — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter has long given world leaders greater leeway on the platform due to the public-interest value of their tweets. This same policy allowed President Trump to skirt Twitter's rules for years. So does Twitter recognize all Taliban accounts under this policy? Some? None? — PolitiTweet.org
