I don't think anyone has a problem understanding that these are private companies and that they are well within their rights to censor whatever they see fit.
What is concerning is that these particular companies are the main platforms used nowadays for conveying ideas and expressing thought, and there are no alternatives that offer the same level of reach. Sure, you can put your video up on another hosting platform. Nobody is going to find it like they would on YouTube.
- richrichardsson 8y agoThen why mention the 1st amendment? In order to disseminate ideas widely authors have always been at the mercy of editors, publishers and distributors. It's an impossible situation because if you force someone to publish something they find objectionable then you've stripped them of their own rights just so some arsehole can write shit about Jews/Muslims/Gays/Blacks/insert minority here.
