I think this is because we haven’t really seen it. Though there is a subset of the right wing that’s been saying exactly this is happening, to them in the context of Facebook and Twitter. I don’t recall seeing any convincing evidence though.
- fsflover 2y agoAFAIK we did see how Apple banned political apps in China and Russia.
- sircastor 2y agoYes, but this is not “Evil Apple”, but the respective governments of those countries forcing Apple to take the action on penalty of being ejected from and country. This is abusive government, not abusive corporation (though it’s arguable that an appeasing company might as well be evil.)
- fsflover 2y agoYes, but it perfectly demonstrates what could happen, and people affected don't care about the reason. The actual problem is the monopoly. Also try to force GNU/Linux to remove some packages.
