If you want to constrain the actions of corporations, you need to pass laws banning their abuses. Whining will do no good whatsoever. Makers of popular platforms ought to be required as a matter of law to keep those platforms open, because it's in the general interest of the public that infrastructure be a platform and not a product.

- quotemstr 6y agoCan you define "malware"? I am categorically and maximally against viewpoint-based censorship. If an otherwise well-behaving app can be "malware" because it espouses a particular viewpoint, I oppose allowing platforms to ban "malware". If you can define "malware" without reference to viewpoint, sure, censor away. For example, banning Gab is egregious and unacceptable under my framework.
