LOL bacci what do you want? Control over how a media entity operates. You don't have to use any forum of communication if you
don't like their platforms and the reality is there are a lot of choices available.

Every communication medium thats privately owned will have a degree of editorial
influence usually in line with the approach preferred by the owners. Even with Australian newspapers the editors decide which
opinion letters are published or not. Is that fascism in your eyes?

It seems to me that there are some people who want a media that will allow their own sometimes extreme views to be posted
unabated even where such views can cause community harm. HotCopper has its rules and it suspends members. Are they fascists?
Of course not. Rules are necessary or it will just turn into a race to the bottom dominated by trolls and the most aggressive abusive posters.

My beef with the major players in media is where imo they don't pay enough tax but that is the province of govt which allows that to happen.

The G7 might put an end to that this week. At least to a global 15%. The septic Gov. are playing Sir Galahad to the Techies though. Same old protectionist practice on their terms, but anti anybody when it’s not.
