Essence of article IMO
"If democratic countries make tech firms impose limits on free speech, so will autocratic ones"
Free speech is what defines a democratic country.
Terms like 'Hate Speech', 'Fake News' are buzz phrase distractions that get in the way of the core of this reality. We already have a legal system in place that defines libel, threats etc. We don't need a new layer of corporate jurisdiction over our ability to speak online or monitoring what we can or can't say
