Why do you host offensive content?
&gt; &quot;Finally, censorship is always bad, for a variety of well understood reasons that we don&#x27;t need to repeat here. But in the case of some types of content, it has special dangers. When you censor a web site based on the extreme or dangerous views of its creator(s), you haven&#x27;t stopped those people from thinking that way. You haven&#x27;t made them go away. You certainly haven&#x27;t stopped the people who hold those views from doing whatever else they do when they&#x27;re not posting on the Internet. What you&#x27;ve actually done is given yourself a false sense of accomplishment by closing your eyes, clapping your hands over your ears, and yelling &quot;Lalala! I can&#x27;t hear you!&quot; at the top of your voice. Pretending a problem doesn&#x27;t exist is not only not a solution, it makes real solutions harder to reach.&quot;<p>I no longer believe this, when cesspits of alt-right, racist assholes use such grandiose ideals to spread their hatred, which then bubbles out into the real world.<p>The idea that good ideas will win, and that common sense and rationality will take the day, are not really supported by what we see around the net. Instead the greater internet fuckwad theorem holds more true, and the spread of vile, violent ideologies is enabled.<p>Freedom of speech is a protection from government, but I think those providing speech platforms, such as hosting companies, should probably take more responsibility for what they propagate.
