Yes, conditions for the web as an open publication platform are rapidly deteriorating. This has major implications for everything that's changed during the PC revolution, not just political speech.
EDIT: Welp, this is the last comment from me for a while. HN's anti-thoughtcrime metering, which was activated on my account when I shared the illegal opinion that Kubernetes is not always a good thing to use for your production server infrastructure (n.b., HN is invested in Docker, and closely associated with Google), has kicked in to prevent me from sharing any more dangerous sentiments like "If you make a censorship-resistant network, don't let the people who have recently been censored know about it."
I look forward to the next five hours of watching every comment that isn't "Great! Delete everything I hate!" drop into the grey, and watching replies to my comments without being able to engage in the conversation. Very fishy stuff going on at HN recently. Source: user for 3315 days.
