The fact that you are aware of what was censored shows how little impact individual companies censoring information has.
Also how do you know those posts didn't have content that violated those companies rules?
- mandmandam 4y ago> The fact that you are aware of what was censored shows how little impact individual companies censoring information has. That may be your fundamental misunderstanding here. Censoring millions of posts and drastically reducing engagement on hundreds of millions more has a very serious effect. I'm aware, because I sought that information out - but most people I talk to still have lingering misinformation on those subjects. You yourself seemed to think there wasn't any such censorship, before the goalposts were moved. I'm reminded of the narcissist's prayer. > how do you know those posts didn't have content that violated those companies rules? Maybe many did violate the companies rules. But the rules were wrong-headed. Legitimate and necessary debate was stifled and perverted at a global scale, and up until half an hour ago you hadn't even heard of it.
