- detaro 4y ago“it’s a private company” is an argument about legality. Doesn't mean you can't criticize or make fun of a company or its Chief Twit for what it does.
- drak0n1c 4y agoThat argument was most commonly used in the past to dismiss criticisms of corporate social media policy, even when there was no mention of legality or government intervention.
- cocacola1 4y agoWas it? I always saw "it's a private company" used when people were complaining about a particular social media policy contravening the first amendment and people pointing out that the first amendment doesn't apply to private companies.
- ergocoder 4y agoHere is one of the people. Now it is just a legal matter. When banning trump, it is used as the main argument.
