Truly outstanding, a must-listen. Ian Haworth really understands social media from the inside.
It should be noted, however, that if Facebook is taking steps toward greater censorship because it is being threatened by the Democratic Party and the Biden Administration, then its ostensibly private actions are no longer private, and become subject to the First Amendment.
Indeed, censorship by social media may come under campaign finance regulation as well, as in-kind contributions to the Democratic Party.
