, the FBI designated QAnon as a potential domestic terror threat. The FBI's report on QAnon's ties to dangerous real-world activities led in part to Twitter's decision, a spokesperson said.
Some QAnon supporters have also become more organized and aggressive in attacking celebrities. QAnon followers frequently comb through social media posts and Instagram pictures of Trump's famous political opponents, intentionally misinterpreting benign photos as proof the celebrities are eating children. The followers then target those celebrities with harassment campaigns, coordinated by influencers in the QAnon community on Twitter, Instagram and YouTube.
This type of harassment campaign is known as "swarming" or "brigading," and Twitter said those swarms will no longer be allowed on the platform. Twitter will ban users who threaten users during QAnon-related swarms, and will limit the reach and search visibility of those who participate in them. Earlier this month, QAnon conspiracy theorists falsely claimed on Twitter, Reddit, and TikTok that the furniture company Wayfair was shipping trafficked children because price glitches raised the price of pillows and cabinets to tens of thousands of dollars. The company's name was the top trend on Twitter in the United States on July 10 as Twitter users posted links to expensive furniture.

NBCNews Great news 👍
NBCNews Thank you!
NBCNews and now I'm starting to believe there is some truth to it.
NBCNews A broad conservative crackdown, as always. No matter, propaganda cannot survive in a free country.
NBCNews Thank you!
NBCNews It is straight from the Russian propaganda playbook. Remember in the 80s...they accused elites of trafficking black children for their organs? False..all meant to sow discord in the US. And it worked. People struggled to adopt kids from other countries.
NBCNews Yet they let chadofchaz post a video of his group beating a person.
NBCNews that's adorable, it really is. Id like to thank the wannabes and fakers out their. Y'all shoulda Quit while you had the chance? no but seriously in other news Tencent Global is kind of pissing me off. I dont really like where they stand, their in my way. 😈to be continued...
NBCNews All these paranoid conspiracy theorists need to get together and form their own platform, but then they'd probably end up creating conspiracy theories about one another.
NBCNews Bad move twitter maybe it’s just because christytegan complained
NBCNews Good job.
NBCNews Maybe they should ban and limit accounts that say Biden2020 in the bio.
NBCNews why hasn't twitter banned all these russiagaters?
NBCNews Can't have anyone questioning the official explanations and establishment narrative.
NBC REPORTS UNTRUE STORIES EVERYDAY... BAND NBC.. or are they THREATENING YOU LIKE OTHERS TO SILENCE THEM

For 3 years the media said that realDonaldTrump was a “Russian Asset” and “Was being black mailed by Putin with a GoldenShower video”? It was deemed a Conspiracy theory by the Muller Report. Plenty of “harassment” came with it! Where was Twitter then? So interesting!
Thank you God! The stupidity of people with little or zero IQs.
Twitter is a company that does a great job. We know that the November 2020 election will see massive fraud by Trump and his supporters.
1/3 Eventhough I am NOT a QAanon supporter: -how does Twitter judge thet a information is a 'conspiracy theories', by what criteria -how do you get the authority to condemn the informations— Beside the fact thet Twitter BLOCKs TRUE & UNPLEASENT INFORMATION ALSO, LIKE IN MY CASE!
Diese Zensur geht gar nicht. Twitter ist szu schliessen.
You just legitimized Q. Now the world will know the truth thanks.
About time
Haha
Good.
Trump if could control conversation on Twitter thought winner next election, utilizing bot system to 'hack' search engine in real-time. FBR
Q Anon is why Trump has made America first. In terms of numbers of cases of COVID19 Masks dont restrict your breathing. The only medical exception for mask wearing is idiot. So be like Trump, be an idiot.
It’s about time.
Q was more honest than , MSNBC and CNN put together.
They don’t want the American people to know the truth.

Is this even legal? Why are they trying to silence us? I wonder if someone will bring this to court....?
Good. I'm glad.
JuliansRum Is it true that they're just doing this to hide some of the uncovered actual nuggets of truth of the movement or are we doing the tin foil hat meme to discredit it all for political convenience?
About time jack WTF? Never did (at least I) see you for a Sociopathic Zuckerberg. Free Speach and Orchestrated Forced Controlled Pro Amanda ( masquerading as “news”) are extremely different. 👇this is it 👇Cult45 Putin ActiveMeasures

NBCNews It's about time. QAnon is a hoax, and these far-right wing people have been punk'd. They are gullible and desperate to believe anything. They have become a dangerous group that spreads lies and puts people lives in danger with outrageous conspiracy theories.
NBCNews
NBCNews My mother and father never saw their families ever again, when the NAZIS came knocking on the door in the middle of the night, everything they believed in was banned bit by bit, and they watched the burning of books.
NBCNews Twitter has cancelled Q.

NBCNews Twitter didn't ban any of the accounts of the left that kept pushing the Russia hoax, which the dems wasted millions of our tax dollars on it. Now suddenly they have become the protectors of information? It's because of obvious crap like this that 'Q' exists. Smh.
NBCNews
