It depends. I'm a lot less concerned about Facebook, YouTube, et al. taking content down. I'm a lot more leery about CloudFlare refusing to host content, and DNS providers kicking law abiding websites off. Online platforms have a good reason to cultivate norms and manage good conduct. Infrastructure providers curating conduct seems more unnecessary. Making CloudFlare, DNS providers, and maybe AWS and Azure common carriers would be my preferred approach.
- goodSteveramos 4y ago>Online platforms have a good reason to cultivate norms and manage good conduct. Sure. But Twitter Facebook and Youtube are not just three out of thousands of online platforms. They are a near monopoly that openly polices the political speech of Americans. They can either be monopolistic or censor political speech but supporting them doing both is just opposing what it means to be an American.
