- drewblaisdell 15y agoGoogle+ just passed 62 million users. It is roughly the size of the United Kingdom. Because of its size, the idea of any sort of limitations on free speech just seems wrong to me. MG Siegler's middle finger isn't hurting anyone, and censoring it seems like starting on the slippery slope of censorship half way down the slope.
