Maybe that says a lot about the real value of digital social networks as we know them now.
Perhaps we should just have dumb pipes, and let people network over them without a MITM running psychology and behavioral economics experiments on people who merely want to connect with friends and family

The power of blocking content should give to state government, because they are supervised by the people. Big tech are not, and they probably use this power as a bargaining chip deal with politicians under table.
Also, a truly unmoderated social network would quickly become a clearing house for garbage content nobody wants to look at.
