I hear you, even though you are downvoted. Right here in the ~10 comments you have from Americans we can see the "double standards" that people adopt. There was no outrage (actually some "anti-outrage") when Apple, Google and AWS censored Parler, an app that allowed "freedom of expression".
People draw the line when it affects their beliefs, in that case they say it was justified for Google, Apple and AWS to censor an application that potentially can be misused. But they get outraged at the thought of removing a video of a massacre, and also they outrage at the thought of limiting their access to tools that are made for the main sole purpose of killing people.
Go figure!
- Majestic121 5y agoIf you want to compare apples and apples, no American would think to remove videos of 9/11 or the Floyd murder. But it's not even about Americans, I'm from France and it's the same, no one would think to remove videos about the 11/13 except to keep it off Facebook so that kids would not see it.
- Dylan16807 5y agoParler is/was a company with millions of dollars and millions of users. It's entirely reasonable to handle that differently from someone's personal data storage.
- beachy 5y agoI'm as much for my rights to hold whatever digital data as probably most other people on this thread. But at the same time there are abominations of pure evil that should never exist, not even for "historical interest". Somewhere in the middle there's a line.
