Might be required for enforcement against illegal activity, either by law or by desire to avoid ending up as one of those platforms that endorses pure freedom of speech and ends up being labeled by society as a haven of crime and extremism. Would be hard to keep control of that without centralized control.

You mean, it would _help_ governments enforce laws. If enforcing the law is a supreme consideration, then it's required. For me - it is not.
- vikramkr 6y agoPhysical Conversations isn't a brand of a company that would be negatively affected by bad publicity (although physical locations/neighborhoods with bad reputations that have trouble attracting investment etc are certainly good examples of this effect). You're not gonna say "avoid physical conversations, that's where criminals hang out." But people can say "avoid that neighborhood/avoid Zoom, that's where all the criminals hang out." So the neighborhood and zoom have incentives to police conduct occurring within their borders.
