But we are talking about Meta removing content from their own website, right?

In contrast to what people think, Facebook IS NOT public infrastructure.

If Meta removes some content from Meta website, and you don't like that, it's a you problem, right?

> Facebook IS NOT public infrastructure

They want protection from liability and also editorial control?

Regardless of the legal status, it seems clear that when massive companies refuse to allow the media they own to publish a dissenting opinion, we’re not headed towards a ~~more~~ democratic society.

No problem with that as long as content responsibility is enlarged to all videos published on their platform.

Given all the sh*t that FB videos contain, I guess Meta's direction will soon be in jail.

They have to choose, safe harbor provisioning or responsibility for the content.
