Twitter is always Acrobat with new technologies that will better contribute to the fine line between promoting free speech and to honorrequests to go for takedown.

The information network is a system developed , for withholding tweet from the current user in some countries, instead of deleting it altogether.

now partially remove some Twitter tweets on the orders of governmental authorities in the countries where people speak who are not allowed to decide freely on all matters, the company said on Thursday.

“As of today give us the opportunity to withhold engaging content for users in a particular country – so that it available to the rest of the world,” the company said in a blog entry

technology and ideology are designed to navigate the navigation part of the Twitter route, but difficult, to the water with the global expansion, the company said. “We are countries that have different ideas about giving the limits of free speech,” Twitter said, citing France and Germany as examples of countries to ban on certain types of content (pro-Nazi content in this case).

The heavier the decision in no way reflects the desire to censor out content in general on a whim or a change in corporate policy, a spokesman for Twitter told VentureBeat. In fact, Twitter seems determined to keep his controversial tweets visible, as many people as possible.

“What is new today is that we now have the opportunity, if we keep to a particular country in a Tweet, Tweet keep that for the rest of the world,” said the spokesman. “The key is that this reagent alone. And” case by case basis, in response to a valid request from an authorized body. And just to be clear, this is not a change of philosophy, and there are still countries in which there will be. “
