We鈥檙e joined by the founder of Politwoops who believes the ban has made the platform 鈥 and politicians 鈥 less transparent. UKIP MP Douglas Carswell blocked Politwoops because he found it 鈥渁nnoying鈥 but he thinks Twitter has overreacted. And we meet Thomas van Linge, a 19-year-old Dutchman who鈥檚 been mapping the Syrian conflict - from his bedroom.
