An edited meme image featuring two stills from MegaMind. The top still shows Titan speaking to a the mayor, who is labelled "TikTokers getting censored by China" and saying "You have freed us!" overlaid. Titan has a US flag as a label, and is saying "Oh, I wouldn't say freed, more like under new management."
So, you think it's a protected right to speak freely on a privately owned platform? Tiktok, Xitter, etc., don't need to make allowances for anyone. They exist to make money off of their users.
It astounds me to this day that people don't understand the basic tenets of social media: if it's free, YOU are the product.
Legally permissable censorship is still censorship. Just because you're allowed to do something doesn't mean that it isn't that thing, and it's silly to argue that because someone is allowed to do something means that people can't complain about it.
Maybe, but the expectation that your can also speak freely on the platform is protected by the almighty capitalism compact we implicitly embrace as Americans and other (not all) 1st world citizens.
Just because you think you have a right doesn't mean you do.
That’s valid if someone was talking about the first amendment, but that wasn’t mentioned.
