i think businesses should be allowed to do what they want IF they dont risk our safety.
Well we'll have to hope that's true. The FCC sent out a warning to participants of the Emergency Alert System that they have an obligation to transmit the messages.
oh i dont know, seems when the companies in power silence our president you MIGHT want to put a little thinky thinky about it
Leaders all over the world are voicing their concerns over this. Some are looking at regulating them.
They do not think social media should be making those decisions.
About 10 countries now have made public statements about this and all are against what was done.
Why ? Well it could easily be done to them with no accountability by a commercial company.
Trump was not silenced. He even has the press corps, press secretary, a room with cameras, a white house website to post his words.
Trump was "canceled" out of social media and many world leaders will disagree with you.
Zuckerberg and Dorsey cannot be the deciders of who gets to speak and who doesn't.
I didn't see too many details. He posted part of an email from his agent but it didn't actually state the reasoning, just that the decision from the company was final. Still not sure exactly what kind of insurance or if it was an umbrella policy.
Maybe its just me but if I were to come out with a big accusation like this against and individual or company I would have a lot of evidence and present it clearly. Especially today when so many people have a strong political agenda.
These companies aren't stupid. They have teams of lawyers that word everything precisely so that they CYA in court.

Canceled my Amazon Prime the other day.
I have no idea what kind of insurance he had with AIG. I am going to assume, for discussion purposes, it’s homeowners insurance including a personal liability umbrella that includes liable/ slander risks.
Insurers typically exclude public figures, like politicians, actors, journalists, professional sport players, writers, TV and radio hosts etc that are more likely to be sued for liable/ slander than the average person.
There are customized policies for high net worth individuals that will include such risk exposures, for a price.
I don’t know anything about this guy, his views or social media profile/ posts.
Conservatives shouldn't really be doing business with that company anyway. At least at which point it is avoidable, like shopping.
There is a seemingly irreversible consumer preference for online shopping. Half of all 2019 holiday shopping, pre Covid, was online.
More than 50% of Amazon’s retail sales are for third parties, many of whom are ma/ pa small business operations.
