Twitter's censor move with eye on China?

New Delhi: twitter, microblogging is the immensely popular social networking site said that "if the law requires it" to block the tweets of a certain country. In a post titled "Flow is still Tweets" Twitter, which has about 300 million users, wrote in his official blog, "Starting today, we will give your users the opportunity to post content observed in a given country, while keeping it available for other parts of the world."

In the wake of the recent government-run Internet sites such as Google, Yahoo! and Facebook for more than a user-generated content, was interpreted by as much as Twitter accommodation increasing number of governments need to regulate the problem of user generated content social networking sites, and it has proven to be a contrasting "stubborn" stand with Google and Facebook.

But some experts wonder if Twitter was really different position on Google or Facebook. "Google and Facebook have said that they would lose if the content is ordered by the courts, and Twitter to say that it can block the tweets, the law requires it," said the expert. "If the law is encoded, such as Germany and France about the pro-Nazi propaganda, Twitter can block pro-Nazi tweets proactively. But in countries like India, where the laws are not as specific, this is done a posteriori on the basis of court orders. That's Twitter says. "

In his blog, Twitter said it has added a feature to block content depending on the region because it is entering "the countries that have different ideas about the contours of freedom of expression." He referred to the example of Germany and France: "Some countries vary so much of our ideas, we can not exist there. Others restrict certain types of content, such as France or Germany, where a ban on pro-Nazi content."

Twitter demand, as "we are bound to tweet in a given country, we try to let the user know and we will label if the content is respected." Also post details of the blocked content Chilling Effects website, a joint project of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the legal departments of several leading U.S. universities.

But the move is likely to be driven by Twitter alleged plan to enter China, the country most Internet users. The service has been banned in Asian countries from 2009. With its new technology may be able to block tweets that the Chinese government to raise hackles in its offensive to a global audience.

Twitter said that so far it has not used their new technology. "But if and when we are obliged to adhere to tweet in a given country, we try to let the user know and we will label if the content is respected," the company said.

Pranesh Prakash, senior officials with the Centre for Internet and Society, called the move a step "Balkanization of the Web". "Area-based blocking, it was used for video hosting sites like Youtube and Hulu, which, thanks to the wishes of copyright owners of many of the videos are not available in India. Is to extend this technology to their Twitter tweets," he said.

As governments try to regulate the web to some extent, the demand for the region-based content filtering and blocking are increasing. Last month, Google and Facebook asking filter "offensive material", the telecommunications minister Kapil Sibal said: "We need to take care of the feelings of our people. Cultural ethos is very important to us."

Twitter became a household name in India last year, thousands of protesters used it to spread the word about Anna Hazare anti-corruption movement. In countries such as Egypt and Tunisia used the protesters in their fight against oppressive regimes. Prakash added that the past had resisted attempts to censor the web site of tweets. "Last year, the U.S. government tried to detailed information about Twitter challenge them in court," he said.
