I would say I’m looking forward to all the “platforms need to censor themselves” people complaining every time they don’t agree with each particular act of self-censorship, but I’m not looking forward to it at all. It’s going to be super tedious and exhausting.

Political censorship is dangerous when it's the government doing the censoring - or say, bullying the media and threatening to throw reporters in jail. This is about free markets and companies may succeed or fail, but it's not the government...

I think it’s not only legal it’s the only moral approach. A publisher deciding all speech is of equal merit is information nihilism. Publishers should get paid to curate an experience and they already do. They just do it poorly today.

And at the end of the day, if people don't find it a useful, compelling product, they will go elsewhere - I mean you guys are the disruptors who create new stuff, right?
