That's not the same fallacy at all. I'm not sure it means what you think it means.
You're saying that moderation is possible without strict moderation. I'm not disputing that, but instead saying that strict moderation is possible, implied by the complete banning of a particular opinion.
If I'm incorrect about the possibility of strict moderation, it doesn't mean that logically there is a fallacy.
If I am correct, there is still no fallacy.
- dragonwriter 8y ago> strict moderation is possible, implied by the complete banning of a particular opinion. A blanket policy doesn't prove that strict moderation is possible. Web hosts tend to have blanket policies prohibiting illegal content, and did both before and he whole time since CDA § 230 was adopted, without legislators or courts finding any inconsistency; to the extent impossibility of strict moderation is a necessary element of the justification of the provision, the mere possibility of stating a blanket policy does not, clearly, suffice to defeat it.
- ameister14 8y agoIt's not about the blanket policy itself, but about the efficacy of its enforcement. If it's possible to enforce such a ban, then it should be possible to enforce bans on obscene content.
