The comments here confuse me. Over the past months/years, I've read many a comment here insisting that whatever Facebook/Twitter/etcetera allow or don't allow in their platforms is absolutely not censorship[1]... But a significant amount of the comments in this post are saying that this move is "fighting censorship with more censorship", which is, by itself, tacitly saying that what the social media companies do is indeed censorship. For the record, I don't think that twitter or facebook banning/blocking whatever they want is censorship[2], legally speaking... And neither is this, for the same reasons. [1]: And some others who don't care and go as far as to say that censorship is okay and free speech doesn't work, among other things. [2]: Unethical, manipulative, a betrayal of the spirit if not the law of "free speech"? Totally, but still not censorship.
