Are you being deliberately obtuse or are you sincerely clueless? He was using a private website, with terms of service, he broke the rules by harassing and encouraging hundreds of his followers to harass a person, and he was removed. It’s that simple. Never mind the fact that he made a very lucrative career out of farming outrage, he probably should have been removed from the internet for advocating for legalizing pedophilia.
“Twitter has permanently suspended conservative commentator Milo Yiannopoulos, saying that he
subjected other users to targeted abuse. Yiannopoulos' suspension comes amid a recent campaign aimed at
Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones in which users
tweeted hundreds of racist and abusive messages. [linked site contains offensive material]
"People should be able to express diverse opinions and beliefs on Twitter," Twitter said in a statement emailed to NPR. "But no one deserves to be subjected to targeted abuse online, and our rules prohibit inciting or engaging in the targeted abuse or harassment of others."“
