Sinister sounds: podcasts are becoming the new medium of misinformation

ISPs are probably next. If all the content hosts/providers are censored, then we better limit speech between individuals, and block it at the connection level.

Then we better start censoring individual conversations. Seeing (dis)information on iMessage will lend it an air of credibility, and that would be terrible!

I wonder if we can come up with a way to censor in person conversation. Maybe my phone can use voice recognition and alert me that my conversation partner (or I) am discussing something that has been debunked and fact checked. If I espouse too many debunked or unverified facts, maybe I should be fined? Or have my credit score lowered?

The possibilities are endless!

I can't read this and not read "We banned people who disagree with us because they had some silly ideas and now they went to other platforms and are gaining support!"

When platforms choose to censor people, they seem to feel like they effectively "killed" the threat. No, the people you refused to argue with just moved and they'll definitely bring everyone who thinks like they do together.

These platforms are going against the information age, towards some kind of "censor age" - It won't work. This will only alienate people into groups that hate each other.
