“Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subverting the freeness of speech.” Benjamin Franklin

most people dont even know what there rights are until they go to prison

Personally, I think these companies should allow free speech. Does that mean people should be hateful, spreading misinformation or other things? No but outright banning people for speaking freely is ridiculous. Social Media has a banning problem.

you can't even express yourself on planet earth anymore im flying to planet Mars anybody want to join me?😂

section 230 needs to be amended. Social media needs to either act as a platform with no responsibility and no editorial rights OR act as classic media with editorial rights and take full responsibility for everything being published. They shouldn't be picking and choosing their obligations to the public, whatsoever. Social media is not above the constitution. Currently, social media wants to control the narrative by which they are not a free for all public forum and their protection under section 230 should be revoked.

"What Are Your Free Speech Rights On Social Media?" None. You "agree" away those rights when you sign up.

We need new laws to protect free speech

I'm not American, but I know the answer to this. Seriously the education system in the US needs a rethink.

This is because they shut down parler, so section 230 applies to amazon, facebook and twitter but not parler...gotcha

Oh geez..its simple, DO NOT INCITE ANY TERRORISM OR ANY SEDITIOUS ACT.

Read the Terms & Conditions before accepting the install.

I’m sad that this has to be explained...

You have no freedom of speech on instagram and youtube. You cant curse....or swear..or use any type of profanity. I wonder whats next. This is absolutely insane.

all dump has to do is walk outside or go to the press room . yes the 24/7 press room . can the US get an update.

Reading the terms and conditions of apps lends more context.

I have a simple rule on my channel - I can say anything that's TRUE ...and then I show the evidence if it's hard to believe

Social media is a service provider that provides communication. The FCC Federal Communication Commission regulates all communication and has jurisdiction in all 50 states. FCC is government. We are using their Communications in which social media is providing. So social media does not have the right to restrict speech. If you still think you have the right you might want to check the newseum's V freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment to the US Constitution.

I had worked at a school run by Sisters of Mercy nuns. A cover up needed to take place so the school leaders placed a written false report about me to transfer blame to me and turn people against me. I told the true story to other staff. I was sacked for speaking. My union told me the employer had the right to sack me for bringing them into disrepute. And it did not matter if it was what they done which brought the disrepute or if I had a need to defend myself with the truth. If people wished to read more details about what happened to me, google white lies test blog

The second you said free speech it was no longer free, cuz there are rules for free speech that must be agreed upon, thus the foly of mankind.

As long as it's in line with the looney left you're ok. If not you'll be cancelled. Lmao

I have "deleted" commercials from MSM for untrruthfulness

Thanks great explanation!

Look it's simple Don't support them hit social media in the pockets and then things will change. Watch how fast they panic if they see money disappear

Either you have free speech or you don't not very complicated

cut to Michael Scott holding the trash can, ITS A TRASH CAN

On social media there apparently arent any.......you adhere to their political affiliations or are banned

The bar analogy is on the button.

Yes it is treu But there should be some laws cuz u U cant say women arent allowed in your restaurant also u cant ban someone from your restaraunt for no reason so something like this should also apply to social media beacuse nowdays its the moste used comunication

Zuckerberg be like: I didn't wanted to be a politician. I was just a computer nerd.

Ok

Imagine taking anything seriously NBC has to say about free speech

The right to freedom of speech, pertaining to the government, is a Civil Liberty. Meaning, the government cannot infringe on free speech. However, freedom of speech is recognized as a HUMAN RIGHT under article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. When tech companies infringe on free speech, they are violating our civil rights and our basic human rights.

Rights on social media? Haven’t heard of such a thing. What are rights?

Last time I checked the people make the laws and the people have spoken.

I don't feel with the right to say what I want!!!And I mean saying a fact,not insulting anyone...

None!! You have no rights to disagree with ANYTHING that Big Tech doesn't support.

He is so wrong. If only the government is constrained by the Constitution. Then companies cannot only ignore the part about free speech. They can also ignore the parts about race, religion, etc. The free speech clause is not complicated at all. Just like race, religion etc is not complicated.

I miss the days when free speech was still free

Slander ?? No you’re incorrect. Slander in this forum is subjective . Who decides what defines slander . This is the incorrect interpretation of free speech on social media . And I think think it’s actually really funny at how you’re trying to “educate” people . It’s actually quite sad. Wait I’d that considered slander because I have my opinion votes this a thumbs down ? hate speech that’s the word you forgot to throw in this little video that’s the only thing that you’re not allowed to do . slander ? Yeah Wrong !

Corporations are publically traded, thus a government asset. When a publically traded CORPORATION sets policies that violate The Constitution, it IS in violation of the law.

The Second Amendment is there to protect our First Amendment!

Jesse Ventura Alex Jones free speech right

Companies can be forced to agree with NSA surveilliance.... There is no constitution of the government want it they do it

part duh.

The contractualization of free society

None.

If your gonna use someone's platform you must be polite and respectful in free speech but if you do bad things on there site every company can kick you out that brings violence

I hope some laws do start coming to protect free speech on social media, they can't just do whatever they like without consequences.

010 binary you tell me? Bye Bye! "or" Bye! *Lack of over-site"AND"greed would extinguish you...

So, the dilemma remains! Speech in America is only controlled by those who control speech. Section 230 is currently up for grabs. Social controls are by nature a commonality of community acceptance. Today Google/Twitter/Facebook have free reign, but for how long?

Free speech is more than just part of the first amendment it's an ideal. Regulations for utilities exist due to the dangers of monopolies and social media should be treated the same since we are dealing with human rights. Civil liberties shall not be infringed by government nor corporation! #Redfaang

I've not used Twitter much. I've avoided it as a 'time waster' but now I've been using it. So I've had my first banning experience this week. My Twitter account just got suspended because I said I do not support Islam. Some annoying person Tweeted at me "So you are pro-Islamaphobia" I responded with "I do not like the religion Islam, I do not support it and I don't have to" That got the Twitter account suspended. Not supporting a religion doesn't constitute a violation of any of the Twitter policies. It's freedom of belief and choice, it is not 'hate.' Now Twitter is doing religious persecution for not sympathizing with a particular religion. I'm pretty sure if I had said I don't support Satanism they would have done nothing. I do not like zoroastrianism, I do not support it and I don't have to. See. Woke is a religious conversion process and to a particular religious belief. The USA was a place where lots of people can have different ideas and pick their own beliefs and ideology... not anymore.

One of many problems as you touch on is that platforms have not fully been defined as one type of medium or another and exploit the grey area. Another aside to be clear noone is asking to be free they claim that status this is a fundamental philosophical divide that exists today and that large enterprises exploit to their benefit.

I put my trust in social media to control speech. They know what they're doing.

Free Speech doesn't just apply to quills and parchment.

It's all right that Facebook and Twitter don't support freedom of speech. We have alternatives and they don't like that. Delete your Facebook delete your Twitter and go to the alternatives.

“Free speech is nothing but absolute. In fact, it only prevents the government…“ Before making a video on something, you should define it. Why don’t you go do that right now. Define “free speech“.

"Free speech is being regulated"......you can even google that exact phrase..........God help us...

Only person that gets freedom of speech is the crazy guy walking down the sidewalk But he’s crazy 😜

Non .....

YOUR PREDICTIONS FOR 2021 👇👇👇

How about we just get dislikes back for others to view on the platform. Whys there no dislikes? Does anyone want to be able to pubicly anounce a dislike on a privite bussness that is controlling what everyone says?

Social media has just gone next level. Fr🎭m the opening scene of The Godfather Part IV.... "THE POPE: Opus Dei: Life is made of mirrors. The old -- broken and fractured. The new -- brave, wounded though mended. Clear again. As Our LORD. Like crystal -- a seven times seventy carat diamond mined, carved from rough challenging mountain. Can you not see? THE GODFATHER: I don't know how to make the old new again. I-- I've only known how to break things. That's what I do. Or that's how I've felt since my father died. THE POPE: (a bottle of Scotch whiskey is heard uncorking) Old clown. My old friend. To destroy is easy. (pouring is heard) To create is divine. That's what saints do. Don't you want to be like the saints, monsignor? Don't you want to be remembered for your faith in God -- in the Holy Offices? THE GODFATHER: Remembered? Or reviled?

What about shouting "Fire" in a private theater? I thought there was a law against that

Wow

They aren’t immune to 9mm to their families heads

everything should be allowed but a threat.

Now DJT is at it AGAIN. This video is the short answer.

The oldest bones in America was white

This is all common sense and logic. Tell that to the Republican extremists..lol

And if the First Amendment doesn't apply to them then there should be no problem when the FCC tells you you have to stop censoring.

BUT MUH FREE SPEECH MUH FREEDOM MUH GUNS

None with the democrats!

.

It’s nice to know by looking at all these comments I see that my fellow Americans are not as stupid as the media wants to think we are we all know what our rights are and your video did not clearly to depict those right! Try again!

He's wrong, Freedom of speech does grant you the right to say what you want in a private forum however the only difference to what he said is that the Private forum has a right to kick you off the forum. That's still a huge difference to how he described it. Just like in the Public forum Freedom of speech is legal however you still have to have facts to support your Free speech, for example calling a false alarm is free speech but so is the free speech in how they prosecute someone for such Free speech. Slander and Defamation of Character is a form of Free Speech, and not necessarily in a Private forum. however when no facts to support that free speech, a person can be sued for such. So Freedom of speech does have it's freedoms no matter what forum we are in, if it doesn't then the point of being kicked out or thrown out or even arrested are simply Freedoms to deal with Freedoms, or the resounding Freedom of Speech toward the Freedom of Speech. In order to understand what freedom of anything is we first have to understand that freedom is a two way street and that ones freedom isn't the only forum that we are involved in, we are also involved in the Freedom to deal with such Freedoms, because the Freedom of life's end is what the original Freedom defines to begin with. The Freedom to speak or act the way you want only to be met by the Freedom of reprisal if need be, because the word Freedom isn't Free, but only in the Freedom of life itself.

Sometimes autofocus sucks. The books in the background are in perfect focus. Danny's face, however, is kinda blurry.

In my opinion, free speech is anything that everyone can say and post with appropriate words, not offensive words.

Very nice 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️

Then let us have our own social media without it being banned!

Hi Boys 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️

Woow woow 😍💋 💝💖❤️

Redacted... But.. Redacted.. Hang on a.. Redacted... Wait a... Redacted... Fine... Fu...

First 😃

Second

any half a brain would say that they are all public forums... before you publish they ask is this private or public... take lawyers with a grain or two of salt

*You are so wrong, companies are private indeed but on public domain for the people so being private as owned by a company creates a dissociation which absolves most part the owner of rights including the right to censor which by itself is not a right, censoring will not be permitted by the human rights also by us the users!* ⭐😊👍❤️🌎🌺

13:43 I love that. Do you love me? 😍💋 💝💖❤️

None.

Corporations are publically traded, thus a government asset. When a publically traded CORPORATION sets policies that violate The Constitution, it IS in violation of the law
