Trump considering Sherman Act Violation investigation into Google and Facebook.

[BlackFlag]

Trump taking war on speech and the free press to unprecedented levels

Good, we need a free press and freedom of speech. Next take on the universities and their speech codes, start crushing this leftwing political correctness and book banning. Let people read Tom Sawyer and Catcher in the Rye again......

^

Nice little soapbox. Now tell us what big gubmint interventions you want Trump to impose on these private companies’ speech?

First thing is to ban shadowbanning....have the balls to tell people they are banned
Then tell them WHY they are banned
Then make sure the rules are applied evenly.

And if they aren't, then regulate them as monopolies......

Shadowbanning is nonsense conspiracy. And Facebook and Google have every right to do whatever they want with your account if you’ve agreed to their TOS and violated it.

No shadowbanning does happen. And I'm all for terms of service agreements, but you need to be fair......and freedom of speech should hold, just like on this messageboard. As long as I don't attack family, threaten you or post porn or personal info, I should be ok, and that's what should be the case, not if you mock someone or say a mean word....

A private company does not need to be fair, and many people have been banned here that never posted porn, threatened another poster, attacked family, or exposed personal info

If THIS site wants to ban all CONSERVATIVE or all LIBERAL points of view, it should be up to them.

This is not a government entity.

If they ban you, you can voice your opinions elsewhere.

The government SHOULD NOT DICTATE US Message Board content.

This site doesn't influence billions of people.

The comparrison is laughable

Time for Trump to nationalize them, huh?

Free Speech is protected in the public square. These apps are the 21st century public square.

You people always say the laws should reflect the times we live in........except now.

Facebook and Google are private companies, and you are free to create a partisan rightwing competitor anytime you want. I will oppose any attempt by the right to nationalize them.

Never suggested we nationalize them. If a Baker can be forced to bake a cake why can't Google be forced to comply with similar regulations?

You order a cake, the baker bakes it.
You search on google, you get search results.

Not sure what your argument is….because you don’t like the results being given an unenlightened and not surprisingly stupid viewpoint you hold.

 

[caddo kid]

I have said this before & I will say it as long as it needs to be said:
America is currently witnessing activity not unlike 1930's Germany within our own government.
Laugh all you want; that won't make it untrue.

Laugh and point.

Retards always invoke Hitler when they can't argue the merits of a subject.

Just as the people of Germany failed to notice, and failed to act, Americans are also allowing history to repeat itself.

Those facts are facts; it matters not if you fail to realize what is going on around you.

So what are they banned for?

 

[ColonelAngus]

I don't want government intervention into any of this.

They are PRIVATE COMPANIES, LEAVE THEM ALONE.

unfortunately this isn't how it works. when people get "abused" they want justice and to force the behavior on others to comply. i'm like you in that you can go find something else to use or build a better solution.

but the way "people" work is to use the gov / laws to slow things down. working at Microsoft in the 90s and beyond showed me quite a bit that once they say you have an unfair advantage, look for regulations and being told how to operate next.

like it or not, it's coming.

Dammitt.

That sucks.

What you are saying is that we are basically a nation full of pussies who need the government to be their mommy.

just what has happened before.

microsoft was told they had an unfair advantage, even though they built it from the ground up. they were told what they could and could not put in their products and had to make different versions that didn't include things like a media player, include other browsers and so forth.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

You missed the part about speech too? And here I thought better of you.

Trump isn't trying to stop free speech knucklehead, he is demanding free speech be applied to all.

So Rush Limbaugh and all the right wing talk shows should be forced to give equal time to all sides?

Well I've said some shit on here, I only get warnings if it gets into those categories I mentioned...and I agree with that. Most of the time I use a hypothetical that involves a spouse or something and I get dinged for it. But disagreement is not a reason to ban people.....that means your weak and can't defend your argument.

Come on, you cannot be that stupid.

Google news is a news aggregator, not a news service.

Do yourself and us a favor and quit while you are behind, this is getting embarrassing to even watch
