> what you can't not publish

Is this double negative intentional?

Freedom of speech has never meant the right to force platforms to broadcast your message.

Nobody is violating JR’s free speech, Spotify is just acting within the framework of the agreement they made with JR.

Whether that involves only the podcast itself or limits on what he can say regarding their interactions, we don’t know because the deal is not public. But nobody forced JR to sign anything, including any potential NDAs.

Definitely intentional! Parent is making the point that freedom of speech should not require authorities compelling speech, even though some free speech advocates seem to be going in that direction.

yeah, i'm in agreement with you

Platforms are starting to form practical monopolies. Google controls searching for content. If they don’t like the topic you will never be found. They routinely suppress anything on the right.

Hosting that can handle load and hackers for normal people is extremely difficult.

i have a rack of servers right next to me, i'm not a pro sysadmin

just because your average developer today lives and breathes AWS and PaaS doesn't mean it's impossible to use the bare metal

That's a hell of a diss for everyone pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into Bing and DDG.
