The New Twitter Policy Is Freedom of Speech, but Not Freedom of Reach

The harm of this is much less in what happens on Twitter than what happens with the data and who gets to control voices in this country. The key problem here is that advertising is what drives Twitter's business. And so you overlay that onto the advertising model of Twitter and you get a stew of really harmful speech overwhelming everybody else. We have essentially turned over the biggest communication systems in our country to a handful of billionaires whose personal politics and personal ambitions are at odds with democracy.
