Stomping your skull is illegal. So no company can make skull stomping OK in their terms of service.
Moderating content is legal. So companies that tell you in advance that they have full control over user submitted content in their terms of service, are not doing anything illegal when they censor you. They're being cruddy, but it is not illegal.
So when they delete your stuff, and you cry about it, you need to grow up and get a grip. The "stuff" was not yours to begin with. So you should not have poured your heart out into it in the first place.
Hint: this very site can delete your posts if they violate the terms of service. In fact, this site has deleted posts. Many of them.
Your first amendment rights do not extend to a service that a private company provides. Your first amendment rights are between you, and the government.
This is plainly obvious to anyone who actually reads said service provider's terms of service. Where it is explicitly explained that any data you submit to the service, belongs to the service, to do anything they want with, for any reason, with no explanation, for all of time, with no recourse for you other than some token arbitration that the service dictates.
Don't believe me? Go to the site in question, scroll to the footer, and actually read the terms, policies, and similar. Spend an entire 10 minutes. You'll be enlightened.
If you do not agree to those terms (hint: you shouldn't!) then do not use the service. Very simple stuff here. Complaining about something that was explained to you in advance is the hight of weak soy entitled fragility. Don't be that guy.
When someone slaps a contract on the table and asks you to sign it, what do you do? You read every darned word, and if one iota of it does not pass muster, you call it out, and demand satisfaction. If they say no, you walk. That is how we let the service know they have made a mistake, and will suffer the consequences of not having customers.
So you didn't read, and clicked "agree", and now are salty. Well, tough cookies. Wake up and take responsibility next time.
Is it weird that I'd prefer Skynet launching a robot uprising over Biden/Harris assuming office?
The Bee with another excellent headline.
The LGBTTQ community welcomes Terminators of all genders and will not tolerate T-phobic rhetoric!
Cute but dumb.
