Twitter has removed a picture from a tweet by President Trump on Tuesday after it received a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) complaint from the New York Times, which owns the rights to the photo.
Why it matters: This is the second time in two weeks that Twitter has had to take down content from Trump’s account due to a copyright violation.
- Twitter and Facebook both removed a manipulated video tweeted by the president’s account two weeks ago after the parents of the toddler subjects featured in the video lodged a copyright claim.
Details: A Twitter spokesperson confirmed that the tweet in question had been actioned due to a DMCA complaint from a rights holder. A Times spokesperson confirmed that it filed the take-down notice and that Twitter took action.
