It's no doubt that social media has taken the world by storm...some good and some unfortunately bad.
Twitter confirmed that it will 'happily listen' and attend a meeting with UK officials to discuss the role Twitter and other social media outlets had in last months
It became apparent that rioters were using social media as a means to coordinate violence, both quickly and to reach a greater audience. Which..is...actually...pretty smart.
The UK is asking if convicted rioters should be banned from using social media.
Thoughts?
