The United States Supreme Court justices have expressed scepticism on Wednesday about a lawsuit against the social media giant Twitter, as they weighed whether to hold internet companies accountable for contentious content by users.
US relatives of Nawras Alassaf had accused Twitter of aiding and abetting the ISIL (ISIS) group, which claimed responsibility for a January 1, 2017, attack in Jordan that killed him and 38 others during a New Year’s celebration. The lawsuit alleges that Twitter failed to police the social media platform for ISIL accounts or posts.
The nine justices heard arguments in Twitter’s appeal, after a lower court allowed the lawsuit to proceed and found that the company had refused to take “meaningful steps” to prevent ISIL’s use of the platform.
