Here's an example of private censorship with a political motivation: https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-leaked-internal-message-suggests-musk-ordered-leftwing-account-freeze-2023-1 https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-leaked-internal-mess...
Nobody elected Musk, and yet he just autocratically controls a major medium of communication now, with no democratic control mechanisms in place. Better not upset the owning class or you, too, will be silenced!
