WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) A New Zealand academic says Twitter temporarily restricted her account after she mocked Chinese President Xi Jinping.
University of Canterbury Professor Anne-Marie Brady is an expert on China s attempts to exert political influence around the world and has been an outspoken critic of its ruling Communist Party. Last week, she sent tweets poking fun at the party s 100th anniversary celebrations.
She said two of those tweets were temporarily marked “unavailable” by Twitter and her account was temporarily restricted over the weekend, before it was restored on Monday.
