I was surprised you didn’t broach the subject of social media deplatforming — such as we’ve seen most recently with Alex Jones/Infowars.
It’s in the continuum, I think. I prefer platforms not do that, and allow users to block/mute content they don’t want to see. Err on the side of free speech.
Oh, I absolutely intuited that that what you said was inclusive of it, I was just surprised you didn’t directly address it for a minute or so, given the amount of publicity the practice has been getting lately.
