Also no freedom, with all your content restrictions.
Also no freedom, with all your content restrictions.
Freedom in reality isn't just a thing that you increase by reducing the rules. There comes a point where less rules result in less freedom. So it is always a balancing act between your freedom to do X and others freedom to not have to be subjected to X. Example: Giving up the freedom being able to murder random people is a little price to pay, if it means reducing the risk to be murdered yourself – especially since decent people wouldn't have the actionable urge to murder each other anyways. If you're a murderer however that may reduce your freedom in ways you dislike. But then, maybe, your freedom shouldn't matter as much.
Maybe I would care more about that specific idea of active freedom if I routinely wittnessed a real repression of any idea that isn't just the mean bullshit of egocentrics who have lost all touch with humanity and just want to see the world burn.
So again, tell me what you're unfree to write there?
Your site uses technologies that make it trivial for large entities (like Google) to know that person X living in Atlanta just posted a certain racially-charged diatribe.
This might come back to bite them in the rear-end in the future, in ways that they don't suspect today, because this data is never getting deleted and might be available to untold numbers of private and state actors in the future.
That is trivially disproven by observing that massive numbers of people use Twitter, Facebook, etc.
You can also see, on this same thread, people explicitly building experiments of uncurated content, which means they want it so much that they are willing to spend much effort building it themselves.
What would it take for you to consider that listing what you want does not necessarily imply a "fact" that all people want the same?
> You made a wild generalization (with the assumed meaning that ALL people want X)
Assumed by whom? Only by your obviously false assumption did I make a wild generalization. i.e., the charge is a lie.
I suppose you'd want to allow people to self select based on topics, and then, well, you essentially get Reddit.
There's nothing about your site that grants me the sort of freedoms I want, including the freedom to locate useful content.
