An ideal which doesn't place Gab's right to host any speech it wishes above Joyent's right not to.

  Of course but ... nothing? > nothing to do with freedom of speech Of course it has something to do with freedom of speech. I agree with you and Joyent on their decision. But don't overreach.

    In the sense of the "ideal" of freedom of speech, sure. In practice, almost everyone uses this to argue that some speech they don't like should be suppressed, e.g. Joyent should be compelled to host Gab. Literally no one is a free speech absolutist. In the sense that I originally meant it — the legal sense — this indeed has nothing to do with freedom of speech.

      "compelled" ?! I think that people think it regrettable. That's all.
