Your "freeze peach" only has to do with your government. You keep pointing out corporations aren't people as if that had anything to do with this topic, but until you start paying taxes and owning land through Facebook, it's a non-sequitur.

I'm not claiming that the law governs this under free speech. I simply think that free speech is worthless if it's only in places that go ignored.

If a company is thousands of people, what is private about it? A thousand people can't keep your secrets. FFS, Facebook is overtly selling access to them. The only ownership of Facebook is through stocks which just means the rich get to decide and the poor don't.

People actually sell houses and shit on Facebook though. Not sure if that can be used as a reason to regulate them or not. For one, it's a pretty easy way to discriminate against minorities without directly implicating themselves.

So why are you forcing Nexus Mods to host this content? What does this have to do with "corporations aren't people"? Why even bring that comment up?

This is just more non-sequiturs. First off, private in this context is privately owned. It doesn't matter how many people work for them, nor how "secret" a "secret" is if you tell it to everyone (which isn't a "secret" to begin with). Second off, Nexus Mod's work force, including community management, is thirteen people.

What you think your free speech should mean, and what you think your country should do with mass media/popular social media has no basis in this conversation.

Oh damn. I thought Nexus mods was so much bigger than that!
