New York (CNN Business) Twitter plans to place a disclaimer on future tweets from world leaders that break its rules but which Twitter decides are in the "public interest," the company said in a blog post Thursday. Trump has repeatedly tested Twitter's community standards with his regular tirades on the platform and some of the president's tweets have run afoul of Twitter's rules. Republicans in Washington, including Trump, often claim without real evidence that technology companies are biased against conservatives . The disclaimer Twitter will place on tweets that break its rules but it decides to keep on the platform. "[D]irect threats of violence or calls to commit violence against an individual" are "unlikely to be considered in the public interest," Twitter said in the blog post.
