    I talk a lot about the impossibility of moderating content at scale well, but it's particularly galling when someone like @NickKristof, who flat out waved off concerns about laws like FOSTA, then starts whining about how HIS content gets moderated under the rules HE advocated forhttps://twitter.com/techdirt/status/1074758200346533888 …

        He’s not really whining. That’s rude.

        Given how many tweets he has on the subject... I'd say he's whining.

        Without Fosta, Backpage trafficked thousands of underage girls, scrubbed the photos of metadata so police couldn't trace them, allowed pimps to use unsearchable phone numbers, refused to remove ads for underage girls. And FB censored photos before/after Fosta; no difference.

        If you believe that, you are incredibly misinformed. (1) Backpage was shutdown *PRIOR* to FOSTA passing and its execs charged PRIOR to FOSTA passing as well. FOSTA had nothing to do with that. (2) FOSTA made it a MUCH BIGGER LIABILITY for Facebook to host such photos.

        Those who don’t care for this sort of thing had best stop defending short-sighted, lazy, anti-artist and anti-culture business practices of Big Tech and start defending creators, including @NickKristof
