So people specifically get there to be as big of an ass as they can be and then get all pikachu.jpg when they get banned?
It's a private platform, not a public utility. They can choose their customers.
The point of these videos is that no platform that values freedom of expression and diverse points of view would have auto-ban systems for the kinds of things that he said. X is massively more liberal in what it allows and what it tolerates before it will ban someone than Blue Sky. So the EFF's claims are totally disingenuous and I don't think people should stand for it no matter where they stand politically.
