What I really hope is that we torn down 230 protection with these decisions. You stop providing service based on choice. You are fully responsible for everything else.
Make it fair free market to play. No more discrimination on anything. Only court orders to take down stuff.
You understand that you're arguing against the existence of moderated forums like HN, right?
Why do you believe that it should be made impractical for sites like HN to exist?
Small price to pay. Sometimes we have to accept some losses for freedom.
"Some losses". You're essentially advocating for ending all moderation on the internet. No more forums, no more IRC networks, no more facebook groups or subreddits either. I guess that'll also kill or heavily cripple much of multiplayer gaming.
I guess everybody needs to learn to be okay with spam too?
What's the big win here? You can already run your own censorship-free sites without forcing your shit down everybody elses throats. Turns out, most people don't want that.
Moderation of a public forum is censorship
Sure, why not? Who cares? People come to HN specifically because of the censorship.
Some censorship is good, some censorship isn't.
Across the span of time, all censorship is bad. If you live long enough, youll eventually find that your closest held beliefs might not be what you once thought they were.

I like this idea, but rather than applying to every website, it should only apply to ones so big that they've stolen the public square from us and replaced it with themselves (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Reddit).
I also think it’s interesting how prince basically said - this is the ceo making a personal decision in the shower. That honesty was good, and at least it showed that prince was torn about it and admitted this is very hard and he will try and be an infrastructure provider in the future.
This is much better than the coordinated attack of a faceless bureaucracy of tech companies like with Parler
