@Argus@mastodon.technology Well there are two things to consider. Who has the right to censor vs when it is morally ok to censor. From a legal standpoint both the government and the private space have a right to censor any content they personally own, thought he government has some additional restriction in this regard (and rightfully so). I'm fine with that.
The issue is more to do with if the space is public and censored or private. I can tell people not to curse in my home, I cant tell them not to curse in the middle of the woods.
Social media networks are a bit odd. They are technically private spaces (someone owns the server and they let you use it). But it is a private space with the intention of giving you access to a public space (the collective fediverse). In that sense they are a bit like an ISP which is a private system giving you access to the internet which as a whole is public.
I dont think an ISP is morally justifiable in censoring what you can or cant see on the internet (all for net neutrality), and I think there should be legal restrictions to ensure that. I see no reason this same logic, at least morally, wouldnt apply to a fediverse server.
@wowaname @Argus@mastodon.technology I tend to agree. In short, right now the free market isnt solving it (but your right it should be able to). As such i support net neutrality until such time that we can insure the free market works in that regard.
