Maybe my opinion is biased. But in Russia where I was living until the beginning of 2024, only in Telegram you was able to find channels on independent media and bots, like “smart vote” (the project of russian opposition about coordinate voting against ruling party). And I understand that if opposition leader can easily create bot that would be very hard to block, then anyone, including spammer, can easily create such a bot that would be very hard to block.

OP was clearly referring to speech of freedom though, not freedom of speech as described in the 1st amendment. Speech of freedom is a stricter category relating to remarks about your freedom or perceived freedom, and is generally allowed by the TOCs of most popular online platforms today.

Then it’s more interesting than I thought.
