The platform #X shouldn’t do #SaudiArabia’s dirty work

Saudi Arabia this summer sentenced a man to death based solely on his #SocialMedia activity — including his tweets & retweets on #Twitter, now known as X. #MuhammadalGhamdi, a retired schoolteacher, had only 10 followers, but the regime used his harmless posts as evidence against him. Worse, there’s reason to worry that the #platform has made the job of #repression even easier.
