Yes, this could use some clarification. Aggregation is fine, by discrimination I meant censoring and blocking certain individuals because you don't like them.

Yes, this could use some clarification. Aggregation is fine, by discrimination I meant censoring and blocking certain individuals because you don't like them. Unless it is something illegal tech companies should respect freedom of speech. By analogy, package (mail) is to packet (internet) is to post (social media). That's the common carrier connection I was trying to get at. ISPs and the postal service is not allowed to use discrimination to deny service to individuals because they don't like what they have to say.

> Unless it is something illegal tech companies should respect freedom of speech. Why would they, when no other company has to? Freedom of speech has nothing to do with others having to allow you to use their services for your speech. > By analogy, package (mail) is to packet (internet) is to post (social media). Sure, and email providers are free to block your emails. Or rank them. I'm not getting your point, are you saying that internet companies should promote all posts equally?
