I'm very pessimistic about speech and Democracy in the United States and I believe the tech industry is contributing to a real witches brew in our society. The consequences will play out in unpredictable and dangerous ways. The focus is all on Trump today, but even politically distant voices are being silenced by this corporate-government alliance. For example in the most recent Ron Paul Liberty Report - they note that the Youtube censors have warned the Liberty Report and it is aggressively collecting email addresses anticipating a ban. I favor free, unregulated speech and I recognize that I am a dinosaur.

>The consequences will play out in unpredictable and dangerous ways. What I'm wondering is what the impact of this will be in other countries. I could see a lot of other governments looking at the actions of US tech companies and going: "Hold on, they can do that? What if they do it over here?"
