Twitter has taken action against Alex Jones.
A Twitter spokesperson confirmed Jones' personal account has limited functions after he posted a tweet that violated its rules. The company, however, stopped short of suspending the account.
"We aren't suspending the account but requiring he delete a tweet which contained a broadcast in violation of our rules," the spokesperson told Mashable.
Jones can't tweet, retweet or like content, but can still browse the site. The timeout will last for 7 days.
The offending tweet, according to BuzzFeed reporter Ryan Mac, contained a Periscope video in which Jones told listeners to get their "battle rifles" ready for antifa and the mainstream media. Read more...
