@peterweyand What has a commercial party like an ISP to do with this 'free speech' which applies to the government?

@trinsec @peterweyand ⬆️ This.

The constitution protects ISPs right to disassociate with speech they find objectionable.

@LouisIngenthron @trinsec @peterweyand so if an ISP wants to not host people of Native American descent for example, you must be OK with that then?

Of course your not. There are discrimination laws. The only way not to discriminate is to host everyone, as long as no laws are being broken.

@peterweyand @obi @trinsec Have you considered the possibility that people keep choosing to disassociate with you, not because you're not a minority, but rather because you're just a raging bigoted asshole?

Welcome to consequences for your actions. It's part of being an adult in a society.

@LouisIngenthron I don't know enough about any events with him, but this seems pretty obvious. Not that anything he has said that I have seen has bothered me, nor would it ever. @peterweyand @trinsec
