Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has renewed his account and announced that he will expel President Trump from the platform indefinitely. President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration ceremony will be held on January 21, 2021, but it seems that President Trump's indefinite expulsion will not be lifted by then.

'The shocking events that have happened in the last 24 hours will use the rest of his tenure to undermine the change of power to President Donald Trump's successor, Joe Biden,' Zuckerberg said. 'It clearly shows that,' he said. 'The case where Mr. Trump's supporters invaded the Federal Capitol and one woman was shot dead' on January 7, 2021 was banished indefinitely. It suggests that it is the cause of.

You can check how Mr. Trump's supporters invade the Capitol in the following article. Early in the morning of the 7th, when the riots broke out, President Trump reportedly 'urged supporters to head to the Capitol.'

'We will extend the blocking period for President Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts indefinitely and will continue this disposition for at least two weeks until the change of government is complete,' Zuckerberg said. It is said that President Trump will be expelled from the entire SNS.



When it was reported that Mr. Trump's supporters had invaded the Federal Capitol, President Trump posted a movie showing the state of the demonstrators, and falsely alleged the election results of the 2020 US presidential election. It seems that he repeated. Therefore, Facebook seems to have decided to delete all posts by President Trump and block the account.

Facebook's Vice President Guy Rosen described the riots at the Capitol as an 'emergency' and said, 'The removal of President Trump's movie does not reduce the risk of ongoing violence. I believe it is rather a promotion, 'he said.



Live-streaming platform Twitch has also revealed to game media Polygon that it has blocked President Trump's account. 'We have disabled President Trump's Twitch channel based on the recent riots at the Capitol,' Twitch said to prevent the platform from being used to incite violence.

In addition, Shopify, an online shopping site opening service, has also removed President Trump's official shop on the platform. A Shopify spokeswoman said, 'We don't tolerate acts that incite violence. Based on recent events, President Donald Trump's actions are:'Organizations, platforms, public relations, etc. that incite or tolerate violence. We have determined that it violates our Terms of Service, 'Prohibit Support', ' explains the reason for the deletion.

In addition, YouTube has announced that it will temporarily limit channels that spread hoaxes about the results of the 2020 US presidential election, including the official channel of President Trump. Instead of deleting the movie of the channel that spread the false alarm, it will be temporarily impossible to upload the movie. It seems that the period during which movies cannot be uploaded is one week .

In addition, Twitter announced that President Trump has posted three tweets that violate the policy and will freeze his account for 12 hours. If the policy violation continues, the account will be frozen permanently, and the account will not be unfrozen unless President Trump deletes the three problematic tweets.



However, unlike Facebook and others, if you spend a 12-hour freeze period and delete the tweet in question, President Trump's account will be available, so the tweet will be deleted immediately, and his Twitter account will be It is resurrected.

President Trump, who has revived from the account freeze, immediately tweeted a movie, in which 'The new administration will be launched on January 20 (21st in Japan time) because Congress has approved the election results.' My current focus is on a smooth and orderly transition of power, 'he said, promising a change of government to the Biden camp.



After that, Twitter eventually permanently frozen President Trump's account.
