I personally consider things like freedom of thought, freedom of choice, and freedom of expression to be pretty sacred, and to restrict those is a massive ethics issue.
Either way, no one is a citizen of Facebook or Meta. Those platforms can police their content in whatever lawful ways they desire, and if they want to police misinformation that’s no one’s business but their own.
The problem is we do have government putting pressure on tech companies to implement these polices. Zuckerberg has been infront of Congress multiple times. To me that’s just a loop hole.
And why can’t I have an opinion on how Meta polices their information?
People can still consume any information they like. But expecting and requiring Facebook or Meta to be that place seems pretty silly to me.
In this instance though Meta is downgrading their department.
