If you want my angle on the financial censorship issue, it sounds to me like a company said something vague and another firm is responding by behaving nonsensically. #FreeSpeech #Japan

Fuzzy language like giving regard isn't that useful.

Ever since it's launch, Facebook's prudishness has been a nuisance to folks the world over.

Also, for a company which dislikes nudity, isn't it kind of ironic how Meta's logo looks like a pair of boobs?

Sometimes, there is an edit button on posts, and sometimes, there isn't.

https://mashable.com/article/facebook-instagram-free-the-nipple-advisory Here's an article on it.

Remember that many human rights experts asked Facebook to drop their nudity policy (and their own Oversight Board supported this), and the company just decided not to do it. #FreeSpeech

I'm not talking about any one post or user. I went through a number of posts (the majority of which are unrelated / irrelevant) to uncover the phenomena.

I've been critical of Bluesky's (ridiculously tiny) character limit for some time, and I've commented on how context collapse was an issue on Twitter (under the previous management).

Concerningly, Bluesky's ultra tiny character limit seems to contribute to context collapse where people are accused of being child predators. #FreeSpeech

Just sorting out the wording.

If someone is spending many hours on on-boarding clients, there likely is a way to speed that up with tech, however, "#AI" as pitched by the likes of Sam Altman are an unreliable form of tech for accomplishing that.
