HawgGoneIt Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 The question here imo lies in whether Twitter is a media company like NBC, FOX, or whomever. I think they are really. So, now, the same rules end up needing to apply, so those protections from having illegal content on their platforms comes into play. Much like the major media companies are policed by the FCC, so to will the social media companies, if this little spat goes in that direction of course.

You can go back to the children's table now... And you can take your hat you tossed in the ring... A modification is altering the content to change its meaning. They didn’t do that. in your dumb logic, Is deleting a comment a modification? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What some may forget to factor is that corporations have the same 1st amendment rights as individuals. They are a collection of individuals. As such, they can’t be forced to broadcast something that they don’t feel represents their views. They most definitely can delete, dump or not even broadcast a viewpoint or counter it.

You can Bullshit all you want. A modification is altering content that changes the meaning of the original message. Them providing a link is no different from a mod responding to a tweet or a message. Corporations have rights to free speech as well What do you think gives a private corporation the right to delete messages or tweets?

Of course, however, as we well know, "normal" media companies fall under the watchful eye and regulation of the FCC, so, something as simple as an F-bomb being broadcast creates fines and the like. The "social" media companies have enjoyed protections from being fined or regulated in that manner, because they haven't acted in the same manner as "normal" media and have operated pretty much as only a platform where "individuals" were allowed to share their views. Once they start acting more like a "normal" media company rather than a "social" one, then perhaps we see those protections fade and the FCC start regulating them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOCIntellectualProperty Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I can’t believe there’s a debate on whether the President should be allowed to freely spread misinformation and falsehoods on certain platforms. The depths these clowns will go to avert the truth Still, it’s even more hilarious to see right wing blowhards defend what they’d usually call socialist behavior, like the government shutting down social media because it’s not furthering their agenda. Sounds a lot like ‘Jina’ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure this is what he’s after. Ir isn't what he is after, but, it's his threat to them, that if they want to monitor, edit, censor him, he'll make it so they have to be covered under the FCC. I'm not sure that isn't a good idea anyway. The reach is too far and wide to be totally unmonitored imo. For instance, even citizens band radio is monitored and subject to FCC rules once the power output reaches a higher wattage than allowed under the regulatory laws. A normal cb maybe outputs a few miles radius which is pretty much unregulated and people can say about whatever they want, but, once you have something with an output to cover a region, then you have to operate within some guidelines where you are given a specific channel code and you need to announce your code before speaking so as to allow someone to file complaints against you if say offensive things. I figure with the worldwide reach and virtually unfettered access of the internet, some level of monitoring is probably coming eventually anyway. If they monitor/regulate you once your coverage area is so large on a cb, why wouldn't they on a virtually unlimited reach platform? It only takes the wrong sum bitch getting his feelers hurt, like DJT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
