Do you consider is censorship if a huge Internet/media company removes illegal content like child pornography, explicit calls to "imminent lawless action," phishing/fraud attempts, explicit misinformation (like false claims that an election date has been moved), or content that goes against their own community guidelines (pornography, violence, etc.)? Do you consider those things censorship or opposition to free speech?
- josephcsible 6y agoYou're mixing up two different things: sites removing illegal content because they're mandated to do so, and sites removing legal content because they choose to do so.
- baddox 6y agoNot all of the examples I gave were illegal content.
- josephcsible 6y agoSo like I said, you're mixing them up.
- baddox 6y agoNo, I'm not mixing them up. I'm asking questions about them to try to understand people's viewpoints.
