Against Big Tech Viewpoint Discrimination
- zimpenfish 7y agoBog standard "this is censorship!!!!" with an additional slippery slope of "what if we have a president friendly with social media companies?" > [block lists meaning] anyone who wished could live in an information bubble protected from views clashing with their cherished beliefs Crowder was relentlessly targeting someone with homophobic abuse. I don't think being against that counts as wanting to live in an information bubble. Plus it doesn't solve the problem of him being able to broadcast that to 3M+ subscribers without penalty.
- jamesdmiller 7y agoIf it were legal, do you think that the power company should cut off electricity to Crowder?
- zimpenfish 7y agoIf he's using it to systematically target and harass people (which has already been clearly demonstrated), I would be 100% ok with them denying him electricity for those purposes, yep. Of course, he's paying for the service, which I suspect he isn't for his YouTube access, which complicates things slightly but still, if it was against the power company T&Cs for access to the grid, yep, cut him off.
