"But it also means that it should no longer be seen as a neutral platform."
Bizarre to me that anyone would ever have thought that in the first place. Twitter has always been a for-profit enterprise, which completely precludes neutrality.
"I really wish some hackers got together and created a censorship resistant social media platform. It is sorely needed."
And then what happens when that platform is used to plan and execute violent attacks and share illegal pornography? I don't disagree that this is a good idea, but it's also not a silver bullet. Free and open communication will always be a perpetual struggle requiring trade-offs and compromises.
- bjourne 7y agoIf that is bizarre to you then you are simply out of touch. A majority of Twitter users treat the site as neutral carrier of tweets. Nothing happens to a censorship resistant platform that is used to execute violent attacks or share illegal pornography. And that is the beauty of it. Your question is like asking what happens to the room in which I and my co-conspirators plan a coup.
