it's LEGALLY a free speech issue, there is precedent and STRONG reasoning behind it
but that aside, it's obviously an issue of free speech, you're just looking for an easy cower out because the popular opinion is that the constitution doesn't apply for technical reasons (which it actually does)
with you brainwashed people, there is no principle, only practice. You totally ignore principle. Truly subhuman.
>people you conflate regular people with corporations you conflate legal warfare with popular consensus
if something is so obnoxious, and "everyone" thinks so, then they would just IGNORE HIM. WHY do you need the state to come in and take people's free will out of the equation?
you're defending the death of free speech you're defending a system of mob rule empowered by the state with no fixed laws
you're a fucking brainwashed moron and we will kill every last one of you
Built by the corporation or it's users? It's users are the main factor here. The effort is replicable and has been replicated. Alex Jone's reasoning is irrelevant to the objective truth and provides no hint. This is simple. The town square cannot be privatized. It's slavery. It's forcing people to your will against their enumerated rights under no contract. Mass contracts are slavery. You can't compel some one to your will/contract by taking ownership up the circumstances of their daily lives. IT. IS. SLAVERY.
I mean, you CAN, but it's illegal, immoral, and abhorrent to western standards.
All you need is for them to go to 0.
The point was that negative votes could hide behind -1 posts but I had none and the visible total of votes on my posts was quite positive, yet the karma was still labelled negatively according to my posting privileges.
So we can have play-by-plays of the cryptocurrency market, which was always widely ridiculed here and is uninteresting to most, but when Alex Jones gets deplatformed, we can't talk about the implications for free speech in our society?
Whatever you think about Alex Jones and his content is entirely beside the point. He's a clown, that's his job, everyone knows it. This was a test case by the big tech cabal for extensive censorship. This is the biggest issue in the world. Media regulation rules the world. This was by far the biggest story in tech in the last months. But NO MENTION? Not even an opportunity for the snarky crowd here to boost their wretched self esteem with a few pot shot comments? Usually they don't miss an opportunity. No, that would bring up the biggest issue in tech, the biggest issue in the world, that would be in YOUR interest, which Slashdot does not serve.
Slashdot is part of the same big tech media cabal. It's a corrupt, biased, garbage rag. Make like 90%+ of it's all-time users and stop giving these bastards ad revenue with your clicks. By the way the moderation system is corrupt and they manually wipe karma and mod points for people they don't like. I've had several experiences with accounts where I never have a post go -1 and some how I have negative karma.

Do you have any reasoning behind that, or just emotion?
You have tunnel vision. You don't understand the deterrent effect this has on society or any of the other implications.
