Prince Harry Once Flicked Twitter CEO For Allowing A Coup On His Social Media
JAKARTA - Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has apparently been reprimanded by Britain's Prince Harry for allowing a coup d'etat on his platform. The warning came before the US Capitol attack on January 6 last occurred.
However, since the riots created by Donald Trump supporters who tried to stop the electoral vote count and annul US President Joe Biden's victory, Harry never heard from Dorsey again.
"Dorsey and I sent each other emails before January 6 in which I warned him that his platform allowed a staged coup. The email was sent the day before, then it happened, and I haven't heard from him since," Harry said.
Harry, the Duke of Sussex, has attacked social media platforms to stop the spread of lies online. "I learned from an early age that incentives for publishing don't always go hand in hand with incentives for truth," said Harry.
Quoting NBC News, Thursday, November 11, Harry also criticized the term "Megxit" used by the media to describe his departure from the British royal family with his wife, Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex.
“Maybe people know this and maybe not, but the term 'Megxit' was or was a misogynistic term, and it was coined by trolls, strengthened by royal correspondents, and it grew and grew and grew into mainstream media. But it started with the trolls," Harry explained.
Harry is a senior royal and grandson of Queen Elizabeth II, he now lives in California with wife Meghan Markle and serves on the Aspen Institute's Commission on Information Disruption.
Previously reported, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were surprisingly exposed as targets of a coordinated, hate-filled Twitter campaign. In fact, the two of them often become conversations that contain racism.
According to a report from Twitter analytics service Bot Sentinel, which analyzed 114,000 tweets related to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. They found that about 70 percent of hate comments about the couple came from 83 accounts.
"Using internal and third-party analytics tools, we estimated the potential combined unique reach of 17,000,000 users. We used friend or follower connections, retweets and mentions to identify accounts that were part of the same hate network," the report said.
"Our research reveals that these accounts boldly coordinated on the platform, and at least one account openly recruited people to join their hate initiative, on Twitter."
