"Zuckerberg said it was ultimately Meta’s decision to take down any content"

Maybe you all need to look up the definition of censorship.

Everyone with any sense knew this before Zuckerberg.

If it’s not Russia, it’s COVID. And of course the border is fully closed.

Section 230?

Yes, one could say "zuck could have said no".. to a room full of gman suits. And suddenly there's both an irs audit and a shareholder call to replace ceo.. it's weird how that happens

“In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our teams when we didn’t agree,” he said in the letter. “Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure.”

“I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it,” he continued. “I also think we made some choices that. with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we wouldn’t make today. Like I said to our teams at the time, I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards due to pressure from any Administration in either direction — and we’re ready to push back if something like this happens again.”

Hmm, follow the money/power


Joshua,
I expect that scotus would deliver a different result had Zuckerberg given them this letter as proof of action

The knee-jerk exhibited TDS exhibited here is so real and invasive that the victim is willing to abandon all honesty and intelligent inquiry at the alter of an alternate truth where men can become women, the color of one’s skin is more important than one’s character, the ends always justify the means and self righteousness and self denial syncopathy with co-sufferers is the only goal in life.

Again, where’s the Progressive/Socialist outrage with this admitted censorship and abuse of the 1st Amendment.

Internet providers and social media sites enjoy special immunities from a sundry of common law liabilities under the pretense that they are not creating content, but are just a public forum passing along information. When they have been caught and/or have admitted their purpose is biased political manipulation, perhaps those so acting (both corporations and individuals) should loose their immunity, have to report their efforts as “in kind” contributions (regulated by campaign finance laws and criminal statutes)…. remembering Trumps 34 felonies… and in the future, elections might be a wee bit more fair.

I write something in reference to a sufferer of TDS and immediately someone (instead of focusing introspectively on their own character as was the reference), leaps to an inaccurate conclusion of my past voting record. TDS reactions are as sure as wet and rain. The TDS religious faith/cult require everything from a weather forecast to a picture at a graveside to be interpreted as a sign of Trump’s evilness.

Pretty sad to waste that much time hating in lockstep.
