tl;dr Censoring and banning "hate speech" doesn't work long term because the users form other communities, these new communities are more toxic since only the most extreme actors stick around. Their solution is even more censorship, harder regulation and more laws, of course.
There's the Kiwi farms case. Its owner, Joshua Moon has been under heavy scrutiny. Cloudfare dropped KF (keep in mind they keep platforming 4chan among other "toxic" sites).
Moon adopted DDoS-Guard, a russian competitor of Cloudfare, then the same people pressured DDoS-Guard and they dropped KF too.
He also tried to raise money, but he kept getting denied because a couple of corporations own all the payment infraestructure and they don't like him
Moon had to develop his own DDoS protection service as a final effort.
It's hilarious the sheer length corpos had gone in order to deplatform him, the only reason KF is still around is because Moon is knowledgeable about law and tech.
Btw, the actual reason KF is targeted by so many "activists" is because they archive shit, activists and alphabets rely on normies having the memory retention of a goldfish
I know, I was there when you had to open up all the threads/pages you wanted in the early hours of the morning before the troons all woke up and sunk tens of thousands of dollars into DDOSing the entire platform.
I was more interested in what the no doubt dickless scholars "on the right side of history" had to say about the whole thing. Just as I expected, their proposed ideology is to triple down on what already clearly isn't working.
Not reading an entire fucking thesis on why "freeze peach is heccin' bad yo", gimme the cliffnotes
