When you order a product on Amazon that immediately breaks and then you find out that of its 10000 reviews, 9750 of them were fake, I commend your ability to put your personal feelings aside in lieu of the greater fight for free speech.
That's a poor analogy. We're not talking about a service that is trying to help users achieve clearly definable goals like eliminating fraud with their customers' consent. No one is claiming that Amazon customers object to having Amazon's help to prevent being defrauded.
We're talking about communication platforms where politically motivated decisions are being made to filter out information that the decision-makers don't like, and the users are saying, "We don't want you to make those decisions for us."
But also think through my original point. Why should we value democracy, the notion that each person has valuable and necessary input in building a society, when we hand control of information over to the very few? Shouldn't we cut out the middlemen and just have our information overlords be in charge of creating and implementing all our policies? Why trust people to vote when we don't trust them to choose and evaluate information?
