Saudi Arabia says monitoring Twitter 'too difficult'
- Saudi Arabia: Sunday, February 17 - 2013 at 05:02
The Saudi culture and information ministry has said it is too difficult to monitor posts by nearly three million people in the kingdom who have Twitter accounts, Saudi Gazette has reported. The ministry cannot censor what is posted on individual Twitter accounts because it is difficult to monitor the huge volume of messages, minister Dr Abdulaziz Khoja, said. "The ministry cannot monitor everything published on Twitter," Khoja said. Raising awareness in the society is required to address the problem, he said. There ought to be self-censorship of materials on Twitter through "the individual's education and society's culture," he said.
