That's not what the trend shows. Apps have added more interactivity like live chats, conferencing calls, more editing options (i.e. editing videos when uploading to YouTube), and this is probably going to keep going adding things like

Clients are getting more interactive over time. People want more interactivity, not less. Interactivity increases with visual complexity, which in turn requires increasingly complex code. UIs are evolving in the direction of more realtime u

I doubt that reasoning. I'm sure there are worse cases that were not banned, but of course one side thought Trump was an existential threat, so there were more underlying reasons. I think Twitter is about to release more email threads

Well, great. That sounds consistent. One minor point thought, political bias doesn't mean the platform leans in that direction, but rather the platform is actively pushing in that direction by censoring opinions on the opposite side. I

My interpretation of the article is that they're excusing direct interference by a government entity just because they're not directly in power (but obviously power is their objective). This implies that it would be justified for

Then great, that is consistent. I just doubt that would be the case. I think the actual justification for banning one political side is not "it's a private company", but rather "it allows our side to win".

So if Trump goes back on twitter, and he gains massive popularity winning the 2024 election, there is no problem right? If so, there is no double standard, but I seriously doubt those who celebrated his ban, will now be ok with his return,

They still have a monarchy. They're ok with an absolute ruler, even if it's symbolic, so it's no surprise when their government reflects those values.

It's not that technologies are making this possible, but rather that technology is undoing the previous era of centralized information when it was much easier to censor people without anyone noticing. The glass half-full take is that t

Ok... so according to this article, Elon can start censoring Democrats and any left wing ideas and that should be ok, right? That wouldn't violate free speech. He can get funding from the RNC, work with Republicans who are not in gover

The electric grid is a big bottleneck that I don't think has a solution yet. At some point EVs will create stress on the grid, slowing down the adoption and leaving the state of this transition in the worst of both worlds--costly elect

It's not just a publishing medium. You can use it privately as well. Social media is blurring those lines. People broadcast their messages daily to their own audience, whether it's family, group of friends, or the world. Eventuall

There is an inherent contradiction calling censorship = free speech. Censorship of any form is already a violation of free speech, and therefore cannot be free speech itself. That said, no platform can be absolutist or it would devolve into
