Very authoritarian censorship based
People should be able to wear what they want without a doubt though
Simply not a Tory fan, Boris or not
Not old enough to vote but I don’t think I’d ever vote Tory eben if it was for brexit
They're far too beholden to corporations and business and not to their ideological roots
People can’t be free when you’re being oppressed by corporations
oppressed?
I think that’s the right word
they certainly wield undue power over the electorate
you mean like the social tech corps?
Not only that but certainly yes
oppressing who tho? ... their users/product?
the electorate
the citizenry
so their product
no
Society as a Whole of say
the people who use social media are their product.... which they sell
Have you not heard of corporate political meddling
you mean like lobbying?
Lobbying that’s the word lmfao
in part lobbying
when political parties prioritise the needs of corporations above the electorate
Only way to combat bigmtech censorship is by using companies that don’t censor
How the market works
nope
regulation
Regulation sure
Likema digital bill of,rights
you dont really need regulation... at least not new regs
and preventing them buying up companies that give them monopolies and vertical integration
But I was talking about how to combat it right now
just label them as platforms .... or if they chose to ban/block people then they are publishers, and everything on their website comes from them ... and they are responsible for every word
Yep I agree label them all platforms
no dont label them...
thats authoritarian
Thousands of hours of content uploaded every day its hard to call them publishers
they should have the choice
Oh yeah fair point
I imagine sites like redit would grow... where they basically let the userbase rank things so what gets shown is pretty much up to the will of the crowd
