If someone got banned on Reddit for calling Clarence Thomas a house slave like Stephen Candie in Django, can he file a complaint with the FC for tech censorship? Asking for a friend.
DOGE will soon make cuts there…
If we wind up in a situation where the EU mandates a form of censorship that the US bans, I assume that the platforms in question would have to separate their EU and US users and sites.
I doubt it. They could just sensor based on location.
It should be interesting to see how it plays out, indeed.
I don’t expect the US will entirely ban all forms of content moderation. I wouldn’t be surprised if the US moved more in the direction of the EU Digital Services Act: required transparency on recommendation algorithms and some sort of NGO trusted flagger system.
Also, similar (but opposite) to Splinternet: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brussels_effect
And by “free speech”, we mean you have to publish what we tell you.
Never stops being true.
Hey government how’s it going

Jesus fucking christ
When they say tech censorship they mean people should be allowed to say bigoted shit
And post as much disinformation as they want without “censorship”.
Defunded in 3…2…
Compelled speech it is then?
So when are bakers going to be forced to bake cakes for gay couples?
Oh, right, hypocrites. Naturally.
Do as I say not as I do is power of no one stops you.
Reveling in their hypocrisy won’t save anything.
They don’t care that you think and I see them as hypocrites.
For them, them being able to be hypocrites is a “cool thing”
It slightly saves my sanity. Only slightly though.
