Trump asks U.S. judge to force Twitter to restart his account
特朗普要求美国法官强制推特解封其账户
Former U.S. President Donald Trump asked a federal judge in Florida on Friday to ask Twitter to restore his account, which the company removed in January citing a risk of incitement of violence. Trump filed a request for preliminary injunction against Twitter in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, arguing the social media company was “coerced” by members of the U.S. Congress to suspend his account.
周五，美国前总统唐纳德·特朗普要求佛罗里达州的一名联邦法官要求推特恢复他的账户，推特公司于今年1月以存在煽动暴力风险为由封禁了他的账户。特朗普向美国佛罗里达州南区地方法院提交了关于针对推特的初步禁令请求，辩称这家社交媒体公司是被美国国会议员“胁迫”暂停其账户的。
Twitter and several other social media platforms banned Trump from their services after a mob of his supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol in a deadly riot on Jan. 6. That assault followed a speech by Trump in which he reiterated false claims that his election loss in November was because of widespread fraud, an assertion rejected by multiple courts and state election officials. Twitter “exercises a degree of power and control over political discourse in this country that is immeasurable, historically unprecedented, and profoundly dangerous to open democratic debate,” Trump’s lawyers said in the filing.
1月6日，特朗普支持者在致命的暴乱中袭击了美国国会大厦，之后推特和其他几个社交媒体平台封禁特朗普的账号。那次袭击发生之前，特朗普在一次演讲中重申错误言论，说他在11月的选举中落败是因为普遍存在的舞弊行为，这一说法被多个法院和州选举官员否认。特朗普的律师在文件中表示，推特“对这个国家的政治言论行使了某种程度的权力和控制，这种权力和控制是不可估量的，史无前例的，对公开民主讨论来说是极其危险的。”
At the time of removing Trump’s account permanently, Twitter said his tweets had violated the platform’s policy barring “glorification of violence.” The company said at the time that Trump’s tweets that led to the removal were “highly likely” to encourage people to replicate what happened in the Capitol riots. Before he was blocked, Trump had more than 88 million followers on Twitter and used it as his social media megaphone.
推特在永久删除特朗普的账户时表示，他的推文违反了该平台禁止“美化暴力”的政策。推特公司当时表示，特朗普导致删除的推文“极有可能”鼓励人们复制国会骚乱中发生的事情。在被封禁之前，特朗普在推特上有8800多万粉丝，并将其用作他的社交媒体扩音器。
