You are essentially saying that we should have to ask permission from large corporations to be able to effectively run a website. For all practical purposes that means no free speech on the internet.
- minerva23 3y agoFreedom of speech meaning freedom from consequences has never existed, and will never exist. Infringing on a company's freedom of association does not eliminate consequences for speech. This is about freedom of association and the right (or lack thereof) to other people's broadcast equipment.
- fallingknife 3y agoAs a society we have held that in most cases corporations do not have freedom of association when providing vital services. e.g. your electric company has to offer you access to its services as long as you pay. This clearly needs to be extended to preserve freedom of speech on the internet. I care a lot about individual rights to free speech and very little about freedom of association for large corporations.
