This is the same strategy Google and Apple use with their app stores. This level of moderation is definitely possible in the valley.

To get on the Apple Store you have to pay $99 a year and show some type of proof of identity. Not to mention that you have to have a Mac and know how to code.

I don’t see any similarities between what Apple does and a social media site.

Ah yes, the very properly moderated Google Play Store.

Facebook isn't the web, it's already a shitty walled garden.

the problem is that any regulation that affects FB will affect the web
