While on one hand it makes sense, as there’s tons of law-breaking, we need proper safety measurments to ensure this isn’t abused, to censor something what points out actual mistakes of government rather than hatespeech and alike.
And from there, comes another issue - who will moderate it? It’s already terrible on facebook/instagram, and it’s purely report-amount based (talking from my personal and acquaintances experience, from last ~3 years). I’ve personally had case, where I was replying to comment (direct translation, so excuse the french) „All fa*** should be hanged” - reporting it had no effect, yet my reply “want to do it yourself” was worth month-long ban, because it’s against their community guidelines.

- krapp 4y agoBut if we don't trust the government, we can't trust the courts.
- LightG 4y agoDon't worry. You can escalate it to the Supreme Court.
- OrangeMonkey 4y agoIt seems like you are suggesting the government can restrain speech and then, if the people disagree that the government, that they then can sue the government to allow it. I don't want to live in the world you suggest. This right here is why I am glad we have a constitution in the US and resist efforts to make it easier to change.
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 4y agoThe world I suggest already exists. Some things are illegal to say.
- encryptluks2 4y agoWell, 3 years later and maybe $100k-200k in lawyer fees and maybe you'll be made whole. If you don't see the issue there then I don't know what to tell you.
- fsflover 4y agoAll other known solutions are worse.
- Dah00n 4y agoMost countries do not have a court system as heavily skewed towards people with money as the US. You can have "less freedom on paper" and yet be more free in reality. If in doubt compare US courts to Scandinavian or EU courts. There are a lot of asterisks after US Freedom of speech and a lot of Dollar signs.
