Which have to be put into the terms and conditions for the user to acknowledge prior to accessing the account.

Secretly employing algorithms to weed out speech which twitter dissents to is tantamount to violating first amendment rights. Frankly, based on what the engineer said, I see a major class action lawsuit by every conservative with a twitter account.

The first amendment does not apply to private corporations. They can run their site as they see fit. The 1st Amendment applies to the government, not private businesses.
