They are just using the same playbook as the rest of Silicon Valley. Twitter and Facebook manage to never be considered a platform or a publisher, and they won't be until legislation requires it.
- danpalmer 6y agoPeople view things like Substack as closer to traditional news publishing/writing and quite differently to social media so I think they're starting from a position of far higher expectations. But regardless, Twitter and Facebook are becoming more well known for their positions on these issues. Twitter is known for having a "lefty bubble" and taking a long time to "ban nazis". Facebook is known for having everyone's conspiracy theory loving Uncle.
