I'm fine with TOS, but TOS isn't the end-all in the US. For example, the electric company can't put in their TOS that I am not allowed to use electricity to view "hate speech" or hold a gathering of neo-Nazis. Neith

I'd prefer that Cloudflare, or any other highly used web infrastructure, not be used as a speech/thought gatekeeping weapon and just stick to blocking things that are illegal only.

You can tweak and retrain many existing models with transfer learning and that does not require you to have Google-level resources ... only the people that do the original model.
