I think roads, electricity, and water should be a public utility, but I don't think someone should be able to walk into a Starbucks and scream hateful nonsense.

Here's the difference: Alex Jones can go create his own video site easily, but he can't create his own worldwide ISP.

- bcheung 8y agoIt's not the same. Starbucks is a strawman. People have to take action and opt in to watching something on YouTube. They have a choice. If people don't want to hear someone they never have to. Youtube doesn't provide the means for publishers to interrupt what you are currently watching (well there's ads but that's a bit different as ads have increase scrutiny).
