ISLAMABAD:The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has approached the Twitter administration to immediately sensitize its moderation teams and ensure that the platform is not used as a propaganda tool for spreading fake information.
In the wake of current smear campaign of spreading false and
baseless information targeting Pakistan, its cities and institutions, the PTA
has stressed upon Twitter to effectively block handles involved in the
campaign.
To the disappointment of the regulator, a number of accounts involved in the propagation of untrue stories, are Twitter verified. However, they are still operation with immunity.
The PTA has asked the platform to take immediate action against such accounts as per its guidelines and policies.
