Donald Trump
Former U.S. President whose critics are allegedly being shadowbanned or suppressed on platforms like X and TikTok
Appears in 2 Cases
X's 2025 Transparency Report reveals a sharp decline to 2,326 hateful conduct suspensions in H2 2024, emphasizing 'freedom of speech, not reach' with focus on labeling over removal. A February 2026 Nature study confirms X's 'For You' algorithm amplifies conservative content, shifting user political attitudes rightward by 0.12 standard deviations. Meta's Q3 2025 report shows >90% enforcement precision and reduced errors, without ideological bias admissions; recent complaints of censorship appear more prevalent on other platforms like YouTube and TikTok.
Since February 20, 2026, no responses have been issued by Alphabet/YouTube to the coalition of 16 state AGs' letter demanding transparency on conservative content moderation. Wyoming's HB 70 GRANITE Act advanced to third reading but was laid back, facing opposition letters. The US State Department's 'freedom.gov' portal to bypass foreign bans is in development amid denials of Europe-specific targeting. Anecdotal shadowbanning complaints on X continue across ideologies with low engagement and no systemic evidence.
