They are colluding to control the medium, and the narrative. One can argue this is worse than television/radio because these tech co’s give a strong illusion of “freedom”. This collusion should be looked into. The new tech world only tolerates advertiser-friendly content.

“Large corporations and governments do not seem to understand this rebound power of information and its ability to control those who try to control it. Once you hear a corporation or government trying to “reinstall confidence” you know they are fragile, hence doomed.”

The First supports the free flow of information and the restriction of information by private individuals and businesses. What Constitutional provision would you cite to make these companies to give anyone a platform?

The collusion is the issue. An oligopoly that colludes behaves like a monopoly.

Is there evidence they have colluded, or did they all just arrive at the same conclusion Independently?

All the co’s banned Alex within 12 hours of each other. This is an oligopoly exhibiting monopolistic behavior. Quite frankly, whether there was direct collusion or not is irrelevant in the game theory of what future expected results are.

Forcing private businesses to give a platform to anyone goes against the First Amendment. Information is virtually free in today’s world and no group of businesses have a lock on distribution.

You can’t run into a theater and yell “fire.” It’s these companies choices’ to not give Alex Jones a platform to spew legitimately hurtful thoughts such as Parkland shooting didn’t happen. The families of dead children were being harassed and threatened as a result.
