Well that’s fine. But I don’t believe Mark Zuckerberg is a better arbiter of free speech than the US government, who actually have courts and a legal system designed to revolve around relative consistency and servicing the public interest. Increasing Facebook’s shareholder value is ostensibly anti-free speech, because it creates the wrong incentive structures for speech propagation — i.e. let obscenities fester because they get feedback, while the unremarkable yet wise voices get perpetually ignored.
