- ceejayoz 4y agoSee Musk for a pretty great recent example of what the aspiration tends to mean in practice.

- mulmen 4y agoDepends how you define free speech. I believe it means free expression, including the right to not speak. Neutrality is a matter of opinion, hence the scare quotes. As soon as you compel someone to speak according to your definition of neutrality you violate their right to free expression.
