Twitter Censorship: “Shadow Banning” Is Written Into The Platform’s New Terms
Twitter has written “shadow banning” aka, censorship, into their new terms. The platform will now intentionally “limit the visibility” of some users. Expect those who dissent from the official narrative to be the ones censored.
Critics have accused Twitter of censorship for quite some time now. But this time, it’s official. The company has admitted they will attempt to silence those critical of the ruling class. According to RT, the news terms will be taking effect in January of 2020. ...
“We may also remove or refuse to distribute any Content on the Services, limit distribution or visibility of any Content on the service, suspend or terminate users, and reclaim usernames without liability to you,” the new terms state.

That's how the 2nd internet gets created.
If anybody thinks there is a problem communicating with the other "side" today, imagine how much harder it's going to be when people make a conscious choice to use one or the other.
Nothing good comes from shutting down opinions that you don't like. They should be out in the open where they can be ridiculed and dismissed, not covered up where they can fester or find alternative means of making their way out.
I'd certainly put more value on knowing what the people I don't agree with are up to than those who I do. Far more.

"don't be evil"
Unless being evil makes you lots of money.

Evil and Good are subjective.
A lot of people who work for Google think that they're doing good.

I wonder what they're thinking. Google is a commercial enterprise whose goal is to make money ... and it's not drilling wells in Africa, or distributing chickens and goats in South America; it's not clearing plastic out of the oceans, or restoring blighted reefs ...
... where I worked I knew my efforts were improving people's health, and cleaning up the environment ... and my paycheck was going to benefit people I love and care about. I knew where the good was located.
I'm not sure I see what good there is in google. I'm having a hard time imagining it.

My brother worked there.
It's a cult. It took a while for him to de-program himself after leaving.
Look at the people we've got in here. Nobody here would say that they are evil.

That's true.
The more I watch of "Why We Hate" the more I see it as part and parcel of tribalism.
Very few people get together in groups under the rubric 'we're moral lepers and even we don't approve of us'. Being in a tribe means your group is good, which means everything you do is righteous. And of course the 'not you' is evil so everything you do to them is justified. It's just all part of the tribal capacity in people.

They aren't any more evil than any other giant corporation - pay f*ckin' attention just once. Monsanto and some Big Pharma's are much worse.
Except maybe Facebook, they've become more evil. They sold user data without (hidden) consent to Russia - that sh*t is even borderline treasonous. Funny, I never hear you or the Harpies say anything bad about them - or did I just miss it?
And as for a "second Internet." lol, that's funny. Reminds me of how much people still don't get what The Internet is. It's like back when people thought AOL was "The Internet." Start your own streaming service, use any of the other ones, vote with your dollars and usage. It's called Capitalism - I'll throw in caveat emptor while I'm here as well.
Even more - not everyone uses Googletube to get out their video/streaming message. The people peddling the real nasty sh*t never go close to Youtube, so YT's change of service is pretty much moot. It does provide the whiny b*tches who use YouTube content to whine about, though, which equals more views for them, so Cha-Ching!
You want to know when you'll really have something to worry about? I mean serious time to march on the WH? It's when your uploads are throttled or edited or deleted by your Internet Access provider. That's when your actual Freedom of Speech is in jeopardy. Fortunately, we're not Russia yet. Give Trump another term though and check back in 5 years. If you can, lol.
For now I'll just chalk this thread up to another one of SIGGY's "agitation for the day" threads.

Quote:You missed it. And I was just getting around to them in THIS thread too, because nobody can post about the evil tech companies until they've posted about Google, Twitter, FB ... Apple, Microsoft, Amazon ... Spectum, AT&T, Verizon, Disney, Comcast...

Quote:Not true. There is a vast user base of posters on Youtube with everything from tool reviews (AvE) to politics (Duran, Tom Luongo, Greg Hunter, Paul Joseph Watson* and too many more to name), "how to" (too many to name), comedy and satire (Soph, Jimmy Dore, too many more to name) and "favorite music" who are neither "really nasty" nor do they fit into google's new "business model".

* Who has already been "unpersonned" by Google, for no reason than I can see except biting satire.

What I'm waiting for is when some smart fella or lady in gubmint notices that these service providers have changed from being PLATFORMS to being PUBLISHERS .... with all of the liabilities (including defamation) attached.
Well, FCC? Gonna get on the stick soon?
