I’ve been reading “The age of surveillance capitalism” and the author posits that once social networks start censoring users, they become responsible for the moderation of the platform 

Today tech CEOs testified at Congress and it seems that majority of the senators want *higher* moderation on these platforms

My q to the philosophy channel is how do you build an uncensored social platform at scale when there is harm such as CP, sextortion, scams, bots etc. 

In this context harm is subjective. I don’t mean harm = illegal. CP is illegal, sending 1000 $DEGEN and getting 10k back is a scam but not illegal. They are both bad.

i think x is a good example of how it's not possible. elon shouts about free speech on x every day but ppl get suspended and banned constantly. the ppl who run platforms are always going to have to moderate/censor because they have lines they can't cross – either personal principles or bottom lines for the business
