I disagree with the EFF on this one. I don't think free speech needs to be absolute. You can draw the line at Nazis. These companies didn't draw the line at Breitbart, or Alex Jones, or any number of far-right sites, but at a site that proudly traces its ideology to a group that successfully executed genocide. Germany and South Korea (among others, I'm sure) still have vibrant democracies and economies despite stricter online and offline speech controls. I feel like Americans have an odd obsession with absolute freedom, e.g., they're more "free" because they can own assault rifles.
