Really highlights the fact that any free speech and naive western sense of freedom in these walled garden is just a button press away from being taken away and that there are no rules or standards. Whenever the owners or their friends feel even slightly displeased, annoyed or god forbid afraid the masks go off and the hammer falls.
It seems like this is not a case of "no rules or standards". These platforms do have rules and standards. The article mentions them, in fact.
.. and then goes on to point out how they are arbitrarily applied.
Right.
Do you happen to work in HR? You'd fit right in considering you defend arbitrarily applied rules at the behest of management.
Ha! That's a good one.
