Twitter Apologizes for 'Mistakenly' Blocking Pro-'Duck
Dynasty' Site

On Tuesday, Twitter apologized for "mistakenly" blocking the
iStandWithPhil.com website, which meant users who supported the Duck Dynasty
patriarch who was suspended from A&E
for supposedly "anti-gay" remarks could not link to the site in their
tweets.
The petition demands the
reinstatement of Phil Robertson and
has nearly 250,000 signatures.
“The URL IStandWithPhil.com was mistakenly flagged as spam tonight, by an
outside organization that tracks spam sources. We have restored access and
apologize for the error,” Twitter told Marketing Land
on Tuesday.
Twitters users expressed outrage
when they discovered that the site was blocked and demanded that it be
reinstated on Twitter. Faith Driven Consumer, which runs the website, noted on
Monday that three sites that supported Robertson had been blocked and implied
that Twitter may have intentionally blocked them.
Twitter generally does not act to
block content until receiving a report from another user or group of
users," the Christian advocacy group said in a statement. "That
complaint is then reviewed by Twitter, who decides whether to take action or
not. Normally, the blocked account holder receives an email notifying them of
the action being taken.
