In an interview with the POLITICO Brussels Playbook, Yourova noted that "the main focus is now on the role of large technology companies."
“The fact that they can silence the current US president based on unclear criteria and without oversight can pose a danger to freedom of speech,” said the deputy head of the EC.
Even taking into account the "irresponsible incitement of President Trump" during the riots in the Capitol, she said, "it is impossible to continue in the same spirit."
She also advocated stricter regulation and accountability for technology companies.
Previously, Twitter permanently closed access to Trump's account due to "the risk of further incitement to violence" after the president commented on the unrest at the Capitol.
Also, the social network suspended the account of Trump's campaign headquarters.
As the US president himself noted, he "predicted that this would happen," and Twitter "goes further and further in prohibiting freedom of speech."
In addition, the video streaming service Twitch, owned by Amazon, and Snapchat have deactivated Trump's account.
In addition, Mark Zuckerberg announced the extension of blocking the accounts of the President of the United States in social networks Facebook and Instagram.
After that, the Internet provider Your T1 WIFI in the US state of Idaho blocked the work of Facebook and Twitter on its networks for the fact that the company is "engaged in censorship."
