Imagine if Mastodon had to make sure that its userbase was &#34;neutral&#34; and that if moderation favored progressives too much it would have to &#34;even things out&#34; or whatever. It would be a mess. 2024-08-13T23:27:09Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsxzfj9c8hku96kuhschsggexd05r8l359vrzawrccp25dqkgry7agzyzkg7s2gw3a0qw5wnq6dnxacrtv5ae662nxwpsgnjudmjxe2veltgua9e59 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvy22qsmckgsqe822j73ptmh34sgwu9ysf3gqnrfq6xplj4rzx43qkp24kv'>nevent1q…24kv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>in the US context, the answer is an emphatic no. There has been some attempt (mainly by GOP run states) to argue that social media can be declared a &#34;common carrier&#34; which would have some equal treatment requirements, but that hasn&#39;t played well in the courts. 2024-08-13T22:01:50Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsz7vpd53pr6x77jzscwmcjnz8qld73eeu8x8shn2hlehlvz8uezzszyzkg7s2gw3a0qw5wnq6dnxacrtv5ae662nxwpsgnjudmjxe2veltgwu0d9s Sharing over here as well. I&#39;m joining the Bluesky board to help provide them guidance. I remain a supporter of all experiments in decentralized social media, and will write more on that later.
