I think that's disingenuous. All business have rules and regulations that "customers" must follow. No shoes; no shirt; no service. I can't refuse service to you if you are thinking about taking your shirt off, but I can refuse service if you actually take your shirt off.
- dahfizz 6y agoI don't understand how that point applies here. A bakery could come up with "rules and regulations" which would effectively deny service to any group the baker wished. The baker could make rules against holding hands with someone of the same sex, or not speaking proper english. There could even be a strict "don't argue with the baker" rule, and the baker could sass and goad customers he didn't want into arguing with him so he can throw the customer out. The entire controversy around what happened with Parler is the question of whether the rules the big tech platforms have are just, and evenly enforced. I have not seen anyone arguing against the concept of rules itself.
- Corrado 6y agoAs far as I understand it, yes, the rules the big tech platforms have ARE just. In this case the customer (Parlor) didn't follow the rules (ToS) and was given notice as to what rules were broken and how they needed to fix things. They did not correct their actions and so they were removed. When they took corrective action, they were allowed back as customers. Seems pretty simple to me. Now, the question of "even" enforcement is another matter, and I don't think I have enough knowledge or background to have an opinion on that.
