Facebook removing images of Courbet's painting L'Origine du Monde, the Venus of Willendorf, or Youtube restricting a videoclip from Brassens' Les Passantes to 18+ viewers.
All perfect examples of nonsense puritanical values that Big Tech applies indiscriminately regardless of the audience's values.
And sure, in these examples they backtracked, but only because these created massive negative buzzes, but what about all the other cases that didn't trend on Twitter or made the frontpage news?
