Compare arab spring where Egypt shut down its internet and Twitter did everything it could to ensure messages got through…
To bowing down to authoritarian bullshit and locking down dissenting and potentially dissenting accounts.
You know, from the free speech absolutist.

Yeah some time ago I used to respect these companies I remember when Google condemned the Egyptian government’s actions in 2011 and one of the very popular activists in the revolution was the head of marketing in Google MENA. But now the truth has never been more obvious to me. Individuals may or may not care but corporations will never care.
