Twitter wouldn’t delete hateful tweets so this artist painted them outside its office


Photo: Shahak Shapira/DPAA Berlin artist is drumming up debate about hate speech and censorship by spray-painting offensive tweets outside the doors of Twitter’s German headquarters. “Within six months, I received exactly nine answers, and all of these answers said that there were no violations of Twitter policies,” Shapira said in the video. “There were no answers to the rest.”In protest, he spray-painted the un-deleted tweets - including the user names of those who wrote them - outside Twitter’s German office in Hamburg. The law has been criticized by the social media companies and others for giving corporations the power to interpret the law. This isn't the first time Shapira has taken on social media trends.
