It's in the name. Any media regulation is some kind of censorship.

  No it is not necessarily. For example forcing to have a chronical timeline on followers would be strong social media regulation but no censorship even in the broadest terms.

    If I'm unable to publish something that I otherwise would, that is de facto censorship.
    • snowpid 10mo ago
      Your example is not a dismiss of my argumentation.
      • llmslave2 10mo ago
        It's not a dismissal, it's a refutation.

    The question isn't if some censorship is good or bad. The question is if media regulation is censorship, and the answer is yes.

      If you want to say "Enforcing regulation equals censorship", that is fine by me. For many, there could be a difference between them, as they reserve censorship to unjust regulation. That would be a matter of linguistics, and I can't say which of both definitions is true.

      You did. By being born in a nation and getting automatic citizenship. If you don't like it, you can leave

          It has nothing to do with consent. As soon as you are born Jus soli comes into play. You are given citizenship and you are now subject to the laws.
          • llmslave2 10mo ago
            Ok but the parent commentator invoked a contract. If there is no consent there is no contract. Simply stating that one is bound by laws isn't a justification, it's just an observation.

        Leave the planet? On Santa's reindeer sleigh?
