Fields has accused Twitter of having knowingly allowed ISIS to spread propaganda, raise money and attract recruits. Twitter, of course, denies all charges. While we await the decision of that case, what we need to address is that intermediaries and service providers increasingly have a duty to ensure that their networks are free from dissemination of cyber-terrorist content.
