        I don’t inherently oppose private platforms controlling who is allowed to comment- I oppose the government deciding certain beliefs are too radical to be allowed on any platform.

            Exactly and sites that profit off of hosting extremist content that radicalises terrorists need to be held accountable for their actions.

            Implies government led accountability.

                What do you mean by social accountability? But no I never said anything about it, I said it was heavily implied that they’re talking about government created accountability.
