Censorship, downranking and deplatforming is already widely used by all social media platforms (and payment systems like Patreon) all over the world.
A friend got banned multiple times from Facebook and Twitter for posting articles from Sweden about their handling of the coronavirus - apparently an incendiary topic.
And now Swedish Spotify has employees who want to selectively muzzle Joe Rogans podcasts:

- mc32 6y agoYes this what I mean. To some people one form of censorship is okay when it confirms or conforms to their world view, but if it doesn’t then they are against it. Another political on is gofundme. If you are perceived to be tar feathered then they suspend the campaign. If you align with their views you are okay. It’s really bad that we’ve gotten into this and at least in the medium term all I see is the formation of camps. So two sides will deplatform each other side. That drives a terrible wedge between people.
