French Jewish group: Twitter gives data in case
None
A French Jewish group says Twitter has turned over information that can help identify the authors of racist and anti-Semitic tweets that carried French hashtags. The president of a Jewish student organization said Saturday the group was withdrawing a $50 million lawsuit against San Francisco-based Twitter Inc., originally filed as a means to pressure the company to comply and "end Twitter's indifference."
In January, a Paris court ordered Twitter to turn over data that could help identify account holders who posted the tweets last fall that included slurs and photos evoking the Holocaust. (AP)
