Nor does freedom of speech work like that even in america. 1st amendment says the government cant restrict speech. Private platforms are allowed to regulate speech

i mean facebook does the same, but you can go against it
11:16

11:16

11:17

this is somewhat another topic but yeah by having it this complicated, it scares people off to go against it
xd if botting is a way of expressing your opinion, but i doubt they let that go trough, doing criminal things is still criminal, but yeah german laws suck with digital stuff, we are like 40 years behind xD

direct insults are still a way of dmg smone, so its not allowed
Hm, looks left very generic, I wonder what the courts have said on the topic and whether they actually think platforms like facebook and twitter are in breach
The US is having similar issues too, facebook and twitter get protections under the law for being platforms, but some argue that by censoring some speech they are applying editorial oversight thus are acting more as publishers
Social media (and the wider internet) is a very very new concept, the laws just need some time to catch up. I don't even know how one would fix it tbf, platforms like twitter and facebook are massive and allowing them to censor gives them extreme power over the rhetoric but don't let them moderate at all and you get toxic cesspools
