Insightful, but about halfway through the problems stop being about running a social network, and start being about running a world-spanning social network that wants to operate in countries and languages that it doesn't bother to have moderators in. I know porn forums that restrict the languages used to languages that they have mods who can understand, but that's obviously a very onerous restriction when you're trying to pull a maximum amount of money out of Malaysia while putting a minimum amount of money or thought into it. You don't have to be social media in Malaysia; someone who speaks the language and is familiar with local laws and politics would be better. > in the end, basically every major social media platform ends up in this same place eventually (the place Twitter was already at when Musk insisted he needed to tear things down and start again). To get to where Twitter was (and I think will ultimately continue to be), it's a bit dishonest to leave out the weekly meetings with administration officials where they ask for political censorship of specific accounts and subjects, and you update them on actions you've taken against the subjects and accounts they gave you last week.
