How about ATT, Verizon, Tmobile/Sprint if they banned certain content from private text messages? On one side, nearly everybody will agree to allow anti spam measures, denying certain unwanted annoying people speech. On the other end, many would object to disallowing private messages based on morality scores of the content.
- tedivm 8y agoAre you asking about my personal opinion, or about what the law currently says? Telecoms are regulated, which is why they can't do things like that. If we want to have the same thing apply to social media then we need to regulate social media to do so. Depending on a court precedent that has already been deemed by other cases not to apply to tech companies isn't going to work- legislation needs to happen.
- seankimdesign 8y agoIs there an established assumption that Facebook will extend their censorship to private messages also? Otherwise this analogy doesn't hold much ground.
