It’s honestly ridiculous. “I stand for anti-hate and all things good (that fit my argument).”

Why are you wasting your time virtue signaling with this comment then? Be the change you wish to see in the world.
They don't care about things like that. Elon trolled with another tweet and must be stopped, that's all that matters to these people.
The so called loving and tolerant people can be some of the worst people in my experience.
I was clearly mocking the post, I thought that was obvious with the second line of the post.
Turns out Apple doesn't want to offer apps that allow nazis and racists to say whatever they please. 4Chan v3.0 isn't going to find a home there.
Time to put down the keyboard my guy. You're clearly upset about a single word.
It's not obvious. You just see what you want to see.
For example:
Twitter’s research shows that its algorithm favors conservative views
Twitter doesn’t know what causes this issue

A study to determine whether Twitter were significantly biased would need to look at a large data set, as well as the specific reasons that accounts were banned. Obviously, you need to distinguish between accounts that were banned for objective reasons and accounts that were banned for political opinions.
Sure. Anonymous (hacker group) was banned for doxing Westboro Baptist members. A bunch of Occupy activists were also banned.
I just think you should learn the definition of the word, my guy.
Actually you didn't, as evidenced by the single line in the quote.
It is also a fact that in the whole world, you 'll only hear Americans claiming that Nazis were left-wing
It’s a bad look for Apple and others to all of a sudden have a problem with Twitter now that they allow free speech and are stopping kiddie pr0n.

I'm not on TikTok but per my understanding TikTok is heavily moderated especially given all the youth on there. However, TikTok is a potential problem for sure given it's ownership.
You're replying to a completely different post now. You totally lost the script and may need a software patch.
So you think Apple should ban apps that come from specific countries because you don’t like those countries?
"Should Twitter get to the point where its lack of moderation causes Apple and Google to remove it from their stores, Musk saidthat he will "make an alternative phone." He said that it hopes "it does not come to that," but will do so if there is "no other choice."
I wonder if the phone will have Fart Mode for ringtones and notifications

Tesla's fart mode is a real gem
What's that? I couldn't hear you over the Ludicrous fart sounds.

Maybe this just shows how far to the right some people are. To the point where even the literal Nazis are to the left of them. 🤷♂️It is also a fact that in the whole world, you 'll only hear Americans claiming that Nazis were left-wing
Possibly? In the United States, I would expect a legitimate challenge to a private organization restricting freedom of speech would be related to showing collusion with government forces - e.g. that it was really the government restricting speech.
Instead, the laws tend to be around the carve-outs of the Communications Decency Act for internet parties like Twitter to not be responsible for publication of illegal materials (for instance, Child Pornography), or anticompetitive practices by organizations in general.
Apple isn't stupid enough to ban Twitter because Elon double-dog-dares them to. Similar to corporate HR, they will have documentation on any potential bans and how they relate to the same rules they apply to everyone. I'm sure Parler will be pointed out as an example of a forum with differing viewpoints that is now in the App Store because it now complies with the various content policies.
That is also making assumptions that a Post-Steve-Jobs Apple really acts out of spite anymore. Pulling advertising is what a lot of companies are doing to protect their logos from being tarnished by the potential dumpster fire. A lot of these advertisers have voiced their concern (to Elon personally in some cases, apparently) that the 'fat' that was cut from Twitter was in staff that dealt with policies and in enforcement for protecting advertisers and other brands, as well as Twitter users in general.
I would expect side loading to be purposely outside the App Store. I very much doubt everyone who wants 'no limitations' will ever be happy with what they get for side loading, same as on Android today.
Apple being upset at the platform for removing child predators was not a turn I thought I would see in 2022.
