DAILY MAIL – Twitter has apologized for blocking users from linking to a website supporting Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson’s right to freedom of speech

The social network has issued a formal apology for blocking the site iStandwithPhil.com saying it was flagged as spam, which prohibited Twitter users from linking to the page.

Twitter users are now able to freely link to the site without any problems.

‘The URL IStandWithPhil.com was mistakenly flagged as spam tonight, by an outside organization that tracks spam sources,’ says the apology issued Monday to MarketingLand. ‘We have restored access and apologize for the error.’
