You are parroting an old tired “it’s only protected speech when it’s the government meddling”, and to that I ask, did you not read the part where TikTok is doing this because the Russian government decided to jail people over “fake news”? Does this not constitute a textbook violation of the freedom of speech?
- bbarn 5y agoWhat freedom of speech? That freedom doesn't exist in two of the three countries involved here.
- LightHugger 5y agoWhat is this reply? The complaint is that the freedom doesn't exist. You seem to be implying that people just don't know, when it's exactly what they're talking about?
- bbarn 5y ago"A textbook violation of the freedom of speech" assumes there is a "textbook" to violate. There isn't one at all here, so why is there any debate at all on the freedom of speech being violated?
