French students sue Twitter $50 Million After Refusing To Identify Authors Of Racist And Anti-Semitic Tweets

The French have much stricter anti-hate speech laws than the US, so some Jewish students thought they would go after Twitter when users of their service posted anti-semitic content. Twitter removed the content, but didn’t identify the culprits. The students feel they have the right to personal retaliatiin or something and went crying to a French court. Twitter argues that only US courts have anything to say about it legally. http://www.ibtimes.com/print/twitter-sued-50-million-after-refusing-identify-authors-racist-anti-semitic-tweets-1145609
