Censorship targets subversion. Censors seek to prevent the spread of antiestablishment information and ideas. So one can hardly claim that a universal ban on algorithmic recommendation for all candidates is censorship.
- pocksuppet 2mo agoCensorship doesn't have to "target subversion" or "prevent the spread of antiestablishment information" to be censorship.
