20 years ago I agree with you but not now, if these big tech companies want to control who says what online then it has to go both ways. Anyone that thinks its ok that these tech companies have this much power is IMO a damn fool.

Maybe we give them too much power by thinking they are the keepers of free speech.

There needs to be video version of wikipedia. A site where people can post the truth without having to worry about getting banned.

Wiki has done a much better job the past few years of making sure the information is much more accurate.

But that's all anyone can ask for.. The truth, information that is data driven. When the internet first became mainstream the whole idea was to be able to share information, them it got flooded with bullshite to the point where we are today. The truth doesn't matter, what does matter is what people want to believe want to believe and what other people want them to believe. Because if people only had the facts then it will not fill other people's agenda.

With that said, I think we (general public) has given social media platforms the power they have. People depend on it for their information and there is a lot of power in controlling the information.
