There's a big difference between government censorship and internet company censorship. Both are problematic but other than that they aren't in the same league.

- banmeagaindan2 6y agoWhy a difference? Internet company censorship is at scale and often works to further censorship by other organizations - some of them are even governments. Ignoring governments - who can have valid political and strategic reasons to be censors - the social media censorship is more serious because it is operating at the social layer - all those capillaries. Social consensus enforcement touches more people in everyday life.
