Bravo!

Twitter to ban political ads
Twitter announced Wednesday that it will no longer take political ads, a major step as tech companies work to deal with misinformation ahead of the 2020 election.

The ban will go into place on Nov. 22.

"This isn’t about free expression. This is about paying for reach," Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey tweeted. "And paying to increase the reach of political speech has significant ramifications that today’s democratic infrastructure may not be prepared to handle."
