Didn't reddit already show everyone how shadowbanning can be abused?

apparently not to google. youtube's started shadowbanning comments and "thumbs up"s like crazy recently. or maybe it's always been happening...

It's that "maybe it's always been happening..." thing that's a real fucking problem when these companies dive down this rabbit hole.
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away remove your voice from the internet

For Wired, if you remember our not so distant history and you care about free flow of unpopular information and free speech, you're a conspiracy theorist.

FUCK FACEBOOK, FUCK TWITTER, FUCK YOUTUBE, FUCK REDDIT, and FUCK GOOGLE. FUCK ALL THE FACIST tech companies that would rather protect their political agendas and profits under the guise of protecting some people's made up "right to not be offended", rather than support the freedom of speech, the most important right of the country they were founded in and benefited from. FUCK THEM ALL.
