The main issue is that it isn't possible to codify what is genuine evil intent as of yet (and perhaps, ever).
So until then, everyone has to choose between erring on too much or erring on too little.
- vkou 8y ago> The main issue is that it isn't possible to codify what is genuine evil intent as of yet (and perhaps, ever). It won't ever be possible. This is why, when faced with these questions, platforms set it as "What is considered acceptable by most people in my society" plus/minus some amount of leeway (Which is where the platforms vary). Both the amount of leeway, and the kind of leeway is, naturally, subjective. Your newspaper's opinions column gives negative leeway. Running your own samizdat publication gives you a lot of positive leeway. Broadcasting through Twitter gives you something in between.
