This is so true and something that is confused all the time by “free speech advocates”. It’s quite frustrating actually.
I’m not happy about the amplification of speech that social networks offer, but l’m even more unhappy about the attitude of “smart” techies who shrug their shoulders and say “free speech - cant do anything about that”.
We can do something about that, but that would mean solving hard problems and not creating another way to type a few hundred words into a text box.
