Tech companies such as Google and Facebook are also utilities of sorts that provide essential services. They depend on the free use of public airwaves. Yet they are subject to little oversight; they simply make up their own rules as they go along. Antitrust laws prohibit one corporation from unfairly devouring its competition, capturing most of its market, and then price-gouging as it sees fit without fear of competition. Google has all but destroyed its search-engine competitors in the same manner that Facebook has driven out competing social media.
Why are huge tech companies seemingly exempt from the rules that older corporations must follow? First, their CEOs wisely cultivate the image of hipsters. The public sees them more as aging teenagers in T-shirts, turtlenecks, and flip-flops than as updated versions of J. P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, or other robber barons of the past. Second, the tech industry’s hierarchy is politically progressive. In brilliant marketing fashion, the Internet, laptops, tablets, and smartphones have meshed with the hip youth culture of music, television, the movies, universities, and fashion.

White House chief of staff Mark Meadows on Monday suggested that the Trump administration would bring a lawsuit against the social media companies that have recently restricted and blocked news reports about Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son Hunter .
In an interview on “ Fox & Friends , ” Meadows said that the online platforms try to censor conservatives and suggested that if the story about Joe and Hunter Biden was about President Donald Trump and his family , tech companies would have not blocked the story .
“ They have two standards : one for one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But I do believe that additional lawsuits will be filed perhaps as early as today to go after that , ” Meadows said .
“ Listen , it ’ s not just the campaigns , ” he added .
“ They ’ re now starting to censor , actually , reporters .
That ’ s a dangerous place for them to go when they ’ re the arbiter of what they deem to be the truth.
” The Chief of Staff ’ s comments come in the wake of a report by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emails from a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden .
Many Democrats have claimed the story is an effort to discredit Joe Biden and an attempt by Russia to help elect Trump .
So far , neither of the Bidens have denied the authenticity of the emails .
The threat of a lawsuit was also prompted by the actions Twitter took to lock Trump ’ s reelection campaign account last Thursday for trying to share the New York Post story .
Meadows said he has not received any intelligence suggesting that the Russians were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hunter Biden ’ s laptop as Rep. Adam Schiff ( D-Calif. ) has alleged .
“ All of this narrative that is out there that would suggest that it ’ s not real , that ’ s the disinformation .
You know , Adam Schiff came on and said , ‘ Oh , this is Russia , Russia , Russia , ’ and again , I can tell you this is Adam Schiff once again trying to spin a story that ’ s not accurate.
” Meadows said , “ I talked to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said , ‘ Listen , if this is a Russian disinformation campaign , we need to make sure the American people know that.
’ His response to me is that he had no knowledge of that.
” Schiff , who is the chairman of the House intelligence committee , has repeatedly asserted , without evidence , that the Trump 2016 campaign colluded with Russia and now is claiming that Trump is working with Russia to hurt Biden ’ s campaign .
“ We know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said on CNN last week , claiming that “ the Kremlin has an obvious interest in denigrating Joe Biden , ” and that “ they want Donald Trump to win.
” When Schiff was asked about specific intelligence about the Kremlin ’ s involvement with disinformation about Biden , the Representative was unable to provide any evidence , saying that the Director of National Intelligence , John Ratcliffe was not “ forthcoming ” with intelligence .
“ And frankly , we haven ’ t got much from the intelligence community very recently , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Meanwhile , Ratcliffe told Fox News on Monday that there is no intelligence to suggest the Hunter Biden email scandal is led by Russia .
“ It ’ s funny that some of the people who complain the most about intelligence being politicized are the ones politicizing the intelligence , ” Ratcliffe said .
“ Unfortunately , in this case it is Adam Schiff , who said the intelligence community believes the Hunter Biden laptop and emails on it are part of a Russian disinformation campaign.
” He continued , “ Let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doesn ’ t believe that because there is no intelligence that supports that .

By
White House chief of staff Mark Meadows on Monday suggested that the Trump administration would bring a lawsuit against the social media companies that have recently restricted and blocked news reports about Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son Hunter.
In an interview on “Fox & Friends,” Meadows said that the online platforms try to censor conservatives and suggested that if the story about Joe and Hunter Biden was about President Donald Trump and his family, tech companies would have not blocked the story.
“They have two standards: one for one campaign, one for the other. But I do believe that additional lawsuits will be filed perhaps as early as today to go after that,” Meadows said.
“Listen, it’s not just the campaigns,” he added. “They’re now starting to censor, actually, reporters. That’s a dangerous place for them to go when they’re the arbiter of what they deem to be the truth.”
The Chief of Staff’s comments come in the wake of a report by the New York Post alleging to have obtained emails from a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden. Many Democrats have claimed the story is an effort to discredit Joe Biden and an attempt by Russia to help elect Trump. So far, neither of the Bidens have denied the authenticity of the emails.
The threat of a lawsuit was also prompted by the actions Twitter took to lock Trump’s reelection campaign account last Thursday for trying to share the New York Post story.
Meadows said he has not received any intelligence suggesting that the Russians were involved in the emails being extracted from Hunter Biden’s laptop as Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) has alleged.
“All of this narrative that is out there that would suggest that it’s not real, that’s the disinformation. You know, Adam Schiff came on and said, ‘Oh, this is Russia, Russia, Russia,’ and again, I can tell you this is Adam Schiff once again trying to spin a story that’s not accurate.” Meadows said, “I talked to director Ratcliffe over the weekend and I said, ‘Listen, if this is a Russian disinformation campaign, we need to make sure the American people know that.’ His response to me is that he had no knowledge of that.”
Schiff, who is the chairman of the House intelligence committee, has repeatedly asserted, without evidence, that the Trump 2016 campaign colluded with Russia and now is claiming that Trump is working with Russia to hurt Biden’s campaign.
“We know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from the Kremlin,” the California Democrat said on CNN last week, claiming that “the Kremlin has an obvious interest in denigrating Joe Biden,” and that “they want Donald Trump to win.”
When Schiff was asked about specific intelligence about the Kremlin’s involvement with disinformation about Biden, the Representative was unable to provide any evidence, saying that the Director of National Intelligence, John Ratcliffe was not “forthcoming” with intelligence.
“And frankly, we haven’t got much from the intelligence community very recently, which concerns me,” added Schiff.
Meanwhile, Ratcliffe told Fox News on Monday that there is no intelligence to suggest the Hunter Biden email scandal is led by Russia.
“It’s funny that some of the people who complain the most about intelligence being politicized are the ones politicizing the intelligence,” Ratcliffe said. “Unfortunately, in this case it is Adam Schiff, who said the intelligence community believes the Hunter Biden laptop and emails on it are part of a Russian disinformation campaign.”
He continued, “Let me be clear: the intelligence community doesn’t believe that because there is no intelligence that supports that. And we have shared no [such] intelligence with Chairman Schiff or any other member of Congress.”

Report : Anti-Trump Former UK Deputy Prime Minister ‘ Involved ’ In Facebook Censorship of Biden Story Former British deputy prime minister of turned Vice President for Global Affairs and Communications at Facebook , Sir Nick Clegg , was allegedly involved in the tech giant ’ s decision to censor the New York Post article exposing details about the Biden family .

The censored NY Post article unveiled alleged emails from the son of former vice president Joe Biden , Hunter Biden , which seemingly cast doubt on the Democrat presidential candidate ’ s previous claims that he has “ never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.
” According to the emails obtained by the Post , Hunter Biden introduced his father to an executive at the Ukrainian gas company Burisma @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to $ 50,000 per month to sit on the board of the company — less than one year before then-Vice President Biden allegedly pressured the Ukrainian government to fire a prosecutor who was said to be investigating the company for corruption .

In the meantime , we are reducing its distribution on our platform.
” On Thursday , President Trump suggested that “ Big Tech ” was censoring the story in order to help Joe Biden win the election in November .
“ Now Big Tech , you see what is going on with Big Tech , [ it ] is censoring these stories to try and get Joe Biden out of this impossible jam , ” Trump said , adding : “ He ’ s in a big jam.
” “ He and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ caught and now they ’ re being protected by Big Tech , ” Trump added .
Republican Senator Josh Hawley — who has asked both Facebook and Twitter to testify before Congress over the alleged election interference — said : “ It ’ s basically Big Tech versus democracy .

Report: Anti-Trump Former UK Deputy Prime Minister ‘Involved’ In Facebook Censorship of Biden Story
Former British deputy prime minister of turned Vice President for Global Affairs and Communications at Facebook, Sir Nick Clegg, was allegedly involved in the tech giant’s decision to censor the New York Post article exposing details about the Biden family.
Breitbart News, October 19, 2020:
A report in The Telegraph claims that the anti-Trump British politician — who exited the former Conservative-Liberal Democrat government when the latter was trounced in the 2015 elections — was one of several members of the content moderation team who decided to reduce the distribution of the damaging report their site.
While most censorship decisions on Facebook are handled by low-level employees and algorithms, high-profile cases such as the New York Post story are said to be handled by Facebook’s vice president of content policy, then the vice president of global public policy, and, finally, by the former Lib Dem leader.
A select few cases, including posts from President Donald Trump, are reportedly adjudicated by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, although the former deputy prime minister is also said to be in on such top decisions.
Sir Nick became Deputy Prime Minister in 2010 after forming a coalition government with the Conservative Party, then led by the notionally centre-right David Cameron.
Under his leadership, the Lib Dems saw a drastic decrease in support from the public, winning just 8 seats in the 2015 general election, a defeat which led to Sir Nick being ousted as leader of the party. In the 2017 snap election he lost his place in the British parliament entirely, with his constituents voting him out.
Sir Nick spent much of his enforced retirement trying to overturn the 2016 vote to Leave the European Union, but in 2018 he joined Facebook, writing in the left-wing Guardian that he was doing so to help the tech giant “navigate the numerous challenges it faces”, including “the balance between free speech and prohibited content”.
The left-wing former deputy prime minister has a long history of criticising President Donald Trump, even going so far as to join an anti-Trump protest when the American leader visited the United Kingdom in 2018.
Sir Nick said that he was doing so because of Trump’s “crazed attacks on the EU, NATO, and WTO have changed things. Plus his best UK pals are Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson and Piers Morgan.”
“He dislikes everything I believe in and believes in everyone I dislike!” he pronounced.
In September, Clegg suggested that Facebook would actively censor the President should he declare victory in November.
“If Donald Trump or indeed anybody else were to declare victory prematurely before the official results are certified, all users will see a very positive label on that post where that premature victory has been claimed making it quite clear to our users that the results have not yet been officially finalised,” Sir Nick warned.
The decision that was reportedly taken by Sir Nick, amongst others at Facebook, to censor the New York Post article was widely criticised as election interference by many on the political right in America.
As a high-profile political figure in Britain, the Lib Dem’s involvement in the apparent election interference is reminiscent of former British spy Christopher Steele’s role in disseminating disinformation against President Trump and his campaign during the 2016 election.
The censored NY Post article unveiled alleged emails from the son of former vice president Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, which seemingly cast doubt on the Democrat presidential candidate’s previous claims that he has “never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.”
According to the emails obtained by the Post, Hunter Biden introduced his father to an executive at the Ukrainian gas company Burisma — which was reportedly paying Hunter up to $50,000 per month to sit on the board of the company — less than one year before then-Vice President Biden allegedly pressured the Ukrainian government to fire a prosecutor who was said to be investigating the company for corruption.
Users on Twitter were blocked from sharing the URL link to the article, and former Democrat congressional staffer turned Facebook employee Andy Stone announced: “While I will intentionally not link to the New York Post, I want be clear that this story is eligible to be fact-checked by Facebook’s third-party fact-checking partners. In the meantime, we are reducing its distribution on our platform.”
On Thursday, President Trump suggested that “Big Tech” was censoring the story in order to help Joe Biden win the election in November.
“Now Big Tech, you see what is going on with Big Tech, [it] is censoring these stories to try and get Joe Biden out of this impossible jam,” Trump said, adding: “He’s in a big jam.”
“He and his family are crooked and they got caught and now they’re being protected by Big Tech,” Trump added.
Republican Senator Josh Hawley — who has asked both Facebook and Twitter to testify before Congress over the alleged election interference — said: “It’s basically Big Tech versus democracy. These tech companies want to control what we read. They want to control journalists in this country. They want to control the news and we just can’t let them.”

Kamala Harris Failed to Prosecute Illegal MS-13 Gang Member Months Before He Murdered Bologna Family
By: John Binder, Breitbart, 21 Oct 2020:
A known MS-13 Gang member, living illegally in the United States, was arrested but went unprosecuted by then-San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris’ office months before he murdered a California family.
On June 22, 2008, 48-year-old Tony Bologna and his three sons — 20-year-old Michael, 18-year-old Andrew, and 16-year-old Matthew — were driving home from a family barbeque in San Francisco, California, when illegal alien MS-13 gang member Edwin Ramos, driving alongside them, randomly opened fire.
Ramos killed Anthony, Michael, and Matthew in the shooting. Prosecutors said Ramos shot the Bolognas because he misidentified them as rival gang members who were involved in a gang murder that day.
The murder case rose to prominence as Harris, who is now Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden’s running mate, was San Francisco District Attorney. Despite a plea by Angel Mom Danielle Bologna to seek the death penalty against Ramos, Harris refused and instead sought a life sentence.
Ramos, three months before the Bologna murders, had a run-in with San Francisco police officers. According to the San Francisco Gate, police had warned Harris’ office that Ramos was a known MS-13 Gang member with multiple run-ins with the law.
Despite his record, Harris’ office did not prosecute Ramos, the San Francisco Gate reported in 2008:
In March, three months before the killings, Ramos was arrested in San Francisco after police pulled him over because his car had illegally tinted windows and no front license plate.

They told investigators that there was no evidence that Ramos had known that Lopez had a gun, according to Harris’ office. [Emphasis added] The gang charge had to have another crime associated with it for prosecutors to bring Ramos to trial, police and prosecutors said. [Emphasis added]
An account of Ramos’ arrest in March 2008 was published in the Los Angeles Times in July 2008. The report notes that after Harris’ office failed to press any charges against Ramos, he was released a couple of days later:
Ramos was also arrested March 30 on a weapons violation, along with an alleged gang member riding in his car. After he spent several days in jail, authorities decided to file charges against the other man but not him, and Ramos was released, said Eileen Hirst, a sheriff’s spokeswoman.

Ramos was convicted in 2012 for the Bologna murders and appealed his conviction. A California appellate court upheld his conviction in 2014.
Danielle Bologna’s husband and two sons were murdered by an illegal alien MS-13 Gang member in 2008. Bologna asked Kamala Harris, then-SanFran DA, to seek the death penalty. Harris refused. https://t.co/5jAl8AhCSg — John Binder ???? (@JxhnBinder) October 12, 2020

Police INTERROGATED French Schoolteacher 4 Days Before His Beheading Because of Complaint by a Muslim Father Who Incited The Gruesome Murder

Police interrogated French schoolteacher Samuel Paty over some cartoons just four days before his murder after complaints were made by the Muslim father of a schoolgirl ( which led to Paty ’ s gruesome murder ) .
Think about that .
Instead of interrogating the murderous father , the sharia compliant French police grilled the teacher four days before his unspeakable murder .
Is it any wonder sharia-adhering Muslims slaughter with impunity ?
Even now , not ONE newspaper or news outlet would dare run a cartoon , drawing etc that would offend Muslim hair-trigger sensibility .

Paty was beheaded by 18-year-old Chechen Aboulakh Anzorov , 18 , who laid in wait for two hours outside the Bois-d ’ Aulne school with two boys who identified the teacher in exchange for £300 .
The 47-year-old history and geography teacher will today be awarded France ’ s highest order of merit , the Legion d ’ Honneur , in recognition of his efforts in trying to explain the importance of freedom of speech .
The allegation put to Paty by police ten days ago – that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hebdo cartoons – is the very action for which he will be honoured at a national ceremony at the Sorbonne this evening .
Anzorov was shot dead by police shortly after he beheaded Paty .
But today it was revealed that seven people , including the two teenagers accused of pointing out the teacher , will face justice for the murder .
Teacher Samuel Paty ( pictured ) was beheaded in Paris on Friday after he shared cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in class .
His killer shared a video of the victim @ @ @ @ @ @ @ focusing on Brahim Chnina ( pictured ) , father of a 13-year-old girl in Paty ’ s class , who denounced the teacher online and gave details of the school .
He has since been arrested Teacher Samuel Paty ( left ) was beheaded in the Paris suburbs on Friday after he shared cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in class , leading Brahim Chinina ( right ) , the father of a girl in his class , to issue what France ’ s interior minister called a ‘ fatwa ’ against him Flowers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a vigil march , dubbed a ‘ Marche Blanche ’ ( White March ) , on Tuesday night in Conflans Saint-Honorine , near Paris The terrorist ’ s body lying in the middle of the road after he was killed by French police following his refusal to surrender Anti-terror prosecutor Jean-Francois Ricard said the children – aged 14 and 15 – were in a group who shared 300-350 euros ( £217-315 ) offered by the killer to help find Paty .
The two stayed with Anzorov for more than two hours waiting for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of an online hate campaign over his choice of lesson material – the same images which unleashed a bloody assault by Islamist gunmen on the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo five years ago .
French newspaper receives threats over republishing Hebdo cartoon in solidarity with slain teacher A French newspaper has received threats after republishing a Charlie Hebdo cartoon on Mohammed to highlight Islamic extremism following the teacher ’ s murder .
Loire Valley paper La Nouvelle Republique has made a legal complaint citing five comments on Facebook which were particularly egregious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an earlier satirical cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed in solidarity with beheaded school teacher Samuel Paty , 47 , who had shown Charlie Hebdo cartoons in a class on freedom of expression .
A journalist at La Nouvelle Republique , Christophe Herigault , spoke on TV last night to reveal that while the vast majority praised the paper for its front page of the Hebo cartoon , there had been a small number of threats .
‘ There were four or five threats , notably on Facebook , which has led us to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matter of principle , ’ Herigault told BFM TV .
Officials at the local police department could not immediately be reached .
Paty ’ s murder has shocked France , and carried echoes of the attack five years ago on the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo , after the magazine had also published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in 2015 .
Ricard said Anzorov had offered pupils at Paty ’ s school money to help him find the teacher as he did not know what Paty looked like .
The prosecutor said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Anzorov even after he told them he wanted to ‘ humiliate and strike ’ Paty over the Mohamed caricatures .
Anzorov decapitated Paty with a knife and tweeted an image of the teacher ’ s severed head on Twitter before he was shot dead by police .
Many of Paty ’ s pupils saw the disturbing image online .
The two teenagers are among seven people who will face prosecution for ‘ conspiracy to commit a terrorist murder ’ , said Ricard .
The others include the father of one of Paty ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ media campaign against the teacher even though his daughter was not in class when the cartoons were shown , said the prosecutor .
The father had exchanged messages with Anzorov via WhatsApp in the days leading up to the murder .
A fourth suspect is a known Islamist radical who helped the father in his campaign .
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has accused the two men of having issued a ‘ fatwa ’ against Paty .
Three of Anzorov ’ s friends complete the suspect list , one of whom allegedly drove him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another accompanied him to purchase a weapon .
Just days before his murder it was Paty who sat in a police station telling officers : ‘ I did not commit any offence.
’ The history and geography teacher was questioned after a schoolgirl ’ s father complained that his showing cartoons of Mohammed amounted to ‘ dissemination of pornographic images.
’ But Paty told officers that the child was absent from his class on October 6 and that her story was founded on ‘ student rumours ’ with the intention to ‘ damage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ institution.
’ Paty ’ s colleagues told France Info that the he had been deeply upset by an online video branding him a ‘ thug ’ which was allegedly circulated by the girl ’ s outraged father .
Anzorov had been in contact with the father of a girl in Paty ’ s class who instigated a campaign against him over the cartoons .
The father , Brahim Chnina , is in custody after France ’ s interior minister accused him of launching a ‘ fatwa ’ against Paty .
Chnina had put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a video calling for protests against Paty , and later published details of the teacher and his school .
Paty was questioned by police last week over a claim that he had asked the Muslims in his class to leave .
He told the officers : ‘ I suggested that my students look away for a few seconds if they thought they were shocked for one reason or another .
‘ At no time did I tell the students : “ Muslims , you can go out because you are going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ask the students who were of the Muslim faith .
My goal when I asked them to look away was that they didn ’ t feel offended.
’ Following the interview , Paty made a complaint of defamation against the father of the girl who had circulated the online video .
The school ’ s principal had supported Paty at his police interview .

Police have carried out dozens of raids since the crime , while the government has ordered the six-month closure of a mosque outside Paris and dissolved the Sheikh Yassin Collective , a group they said supported Hamas .
The Palestinian militant group said on Wednesday it had ‘ no links ’ with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – the Islamist radical in custody over Paty ’ s murder .
The French government has earmarked for dissolution more than 50 other organisations it accuses of having links to radical Islam .
On Wednesday evening , the president will address an official memorial with Paty ’ s family and some 400 guests at the Sorbonne university in Paris .
One imam apologised yesterday after his mosque shared details of Paty and his school on Facebook following a campaign by an outraged Muslim father .
‘ Given what happened we regret having published @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Henniche , according to France Info .
‘ We are currently seeing how in the future to take a step back before getting carried away on things like that.
’ While ISIS has not claimed responsibility for Paty ’ s killing , the magazine has previously urged people to emulate the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris which was also seen as revenge for blasphemy against Mohammed .
The Charlie Hebdo attackers were ‘ leaving a clear path for others to follow ’ because Western governments would not ‘ carry out the punishment for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ISIS magazine said .
The 2015 killings were the first in a series of terror attacks which have rocked France in recent years , including Paty ’ s beheading last Friday .
According to the SITE Intelligence Group , a US-based monitor , supporters of al-Qaeda have also been ‘ celebrating ’ the attack and sharing graphic images online .

Anti-terror prosecutor Jean-Francois Ricard said the children – aged 14 and 15 – were in a group who shared 300-350 euros (£217-315) offered by the killer to help find Paty.
The two stayed with Anzorov for more than two hours waiting for the father-of-one.
Paty became the subject of an online hate campaign over his choice of lesson material – the same images which unleashed a bloody assault by Islamist gunmen on the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo five years ago.
French newspaper receives threats over republishing Hebdo cartoon in solidarity with slain teacher
A French newspaper has received threats after republishing a Charlie Hebdo cartoon on Mohammed to highlight Islamic extremism following the teacher’s murder.
Loire Valley paper La Nouvelle Republique has made a legal complaint citing five comments on Facebook which were particularly egregious.
On Sunday, the paper published an earlier satirical cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed in solidarity with beheaded school teacher Samuel Paty, 47, who had shown Charlie Hebdo cartoons in a class on freedom of expression.
A journalist at La Nouvelle Republique, Christophe Herigault, spoke on TV last night to reveal that while the vast majority praised the paper for its front page of the Hebo cartoon, there had been a small number of threats.
‘There were four or five threats, notably on Facebook, which has led us to lodge a judicial complaint, as a matter of principle,’ Herigault told BFM TV.
Officials at the local police department could not immediately be reached.
Paty’s murder has shocked France, and carried echoes of the attack five years ago on the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, after the magazine had also published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in 2015.
Ricard said Anzorov had offered pupils at Paty’s school money to help him find the teacher as he did not know what Paty looked like.
The prosecutor said the two accused youngsters had stayed with Anzorov even after he told them he wanted to ‘humiliate and strike’ Paty over the Mohamed caricatures.
Anzorov decapitated Paty with a knife and tweeted an image of the teacher’s severed head on Twitter before he was shot dead by police. Many of Paty’s pupils saw the disturbing image online.
The two teenagers are among seven people who will face prosecution for ‘conspiracy to commit a terrorist murder’, said Ricard.
The others include the father of one of Paty’s pupils, who started the social media campaign against the teacher even though his daughter was not in class when the cartoons were shown, said the prosecutor.
The father had exchanged messages with Anzorov via WhatsApp in the days leading up to the murder.
A fourth suspect is a known Islamist radical who helped the father in his campaign.
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has accused the two men of having issued a ‘fatwa’ against Paty.
Three of Anzorov’s friends complete the suspect list, one of whom allegedly drove him to the scene of the crime while another accompanied him to purchase a weapon.
Just days before his murder it was Paty who sat in a police station telling officers: ‘I did not commit any offence.’
The history and geography teacher was questioned after a schoolgirl’s father complained that his showing cartoons of Mohammed amounted to ‘dissemination of pornographic images.’
But Paty told officers that the child was absent from his class on October 6 and that her story was founded on ‘student rumours’ with the intention to ‘damage my image, the college and the institution.’
Paty’s colleagues told France Info that the he had been deeply upset by an online video branding him a ‘thug’ which was allegedly circulated by the girl’s outraged father.
Anzorov had been in contact with the father of a girl in Paty’s class who instigated a campaign against him over the cartoons.
The father, Brahim Chnina, is in custody after France’s interior minister accused him of launching a ‘fatwa’ against Paty.
Chnina had put his phone number on a Facebook post with a video calling for protests against Paty, and later published details of the teacher and his school.
Paty was questioned by police last week over a claim that he had asked the Muslims in his class to leave. He told the officers: ‘I suggested that my students look away for a few seconds if they thought they were shocked for one reason or another.
‘At no time did I tell the students: “Muslims, you can go out because you are going to be shocked.” And I did not ask the students who were of the Muslim faith. My goal when I asked them to look away was that they didn’t feel offended.’
Following the interview, Paty made a complaint of defamation against the father of the girl who had circulated the online video.
The school’s principal had supported Paty at his police interview.

The murder has led to a renewed crackdown on extremism in France where ministers plan to shut down two Islamic organisations and a Paris mosque.
Police have carried out dozens of raids since the crime, while the government has ordered the six-month closure of a mosque outside Paris and dissolved the Sheikh Yassin Collective, a group they said supported Hamas.
The Palestinian militant group said on Wednesday it had ‘no links’ with the French organisation founded by Abdelhakim Sefrioui – the Islamist radical in custody over Paty’s murder.
The French government has earmarked for dissolution more than 50 other organisations it accuses of having links to radical Islam.
‘Our fellow citizens expect actions,’ Macron said on Tuesday.
On Wednesday evening, the president will address an official memorial with Paty’s family and some 400 guests at the Sorbonne university in Paris.
One imam apologised yesterday after his mosque shared details of Paty and his school on Facebook following a campaign by an outraged Muslim father.
‘Given what happened we regret having published it, said imam M’hammed Henniche, according to France Info.
‘We are currently seeing how in the future to take a step back before getting carried away on things like that.’
While ISIS has not claimed responsibility for Paty’s killing, the magazine has previously urged people to emulate the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris which was also seen as revenge for blasphemy against Mohammed.
The Charlie Hebdo attackers were ‘leaving a clear path for others to follow’ because Western governments would not ‘carry out the punishment for the blasphemy prescribed by Islam’, the ISIS magazine said.
The 2015 killings were the first in a series of terror attacks which have rocked France in recent years, including Paty’s beheading last Friday.
According to the SITE Intelligence Group, a US-based monitor, supporters of al-Qaeda have also been ‘celebrating’ the attack and sharing graphic images online.

Social media giant Facebook has removed 120,000 posts so far as it fights election misinformation and attempts to prevent a recurrence of 2016, when the platform was exploited by Russian agents seeking to sway the results of the presidential race.
In a Sunday interview with the French weekly newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche, Facebook vice president Nick Clegg said the Menlo Park, California-based company had also rejected 2.2 million ads that were unable to complete the site’s authorization process.

The tech company is relying on both artificial intelligence tools and tens of thousands of employees to vet content related to the Nov. 3 election.
According to The Guardian, the former British deputy prime minister, who was hired by CEO Mark Zuckerberg in late 2018 to head the social media company’s global affairs unit, also noted that advisory warnings were added to 150 million posts containing false information.
Clegg assured Journal du Dimanche the company had improved since the 2016 presidential election.
“At the time, absolutely no one expected foreign and Russian interference. This experience was traumatic for us and for American democracy,” Clegg said, according to an English translation of his comments confirmed by The Washington Times.
Clegg pointed out that Facebook has since joined with 70 different media outlets, including five in France, in its quest to verify information on its platforms.
Facebook’s fact-checking initiative has been met with mixed assessments, according to The Verge. The program has broadened since it was introduced in 2016 and now includes review of Facebook groups.
Clegg’s conversation with Journal du Dimanche follows a series of policy changes the company made over the summer, including the implementation of an independent Oversight Board in response to increased scrutiny.
Not only has Facebook prohibited new political ads the week before the election, it will also reject ads from candidates President Donald Trump or Joe Biden if either tries to prematurely claim victory.

Outside influence has already been detected in the months ahead of Election Day, and The New York Times reported in August that members of the U.S. intelligence community say Russia, China and Iran are all attempting to meddle in the race.
In 2016, the same agencies said that Russia had used digital influence operations to sway voters in favor of President Trump, who has been dogged by that assessment for the past four years. It’s a claim he has routinely denied, dismissing it as “fake news.”
At the end of September, CIA analysis determined Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely continuing to approve and direct interference operations.
