    Yeah, I don’t see how they’re responsible either, but I’m getting lots of emotional replies and nobody actually seems to want to admit they’re advocating censorship. Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a thing.

        Yeah, like all those laws about Israel and Palestine and such. Definitely no pesky emotions involved, no sirree

            Yes they should. Not my point. You still trying to argue that law doesn’t involve emotion?

              That’s not what ‘law is emotionless’ means. It means that the law should be applied regardless of the emotions of the culpable person, their family, or sympathizers.

                  You claimed that the platform and the guys who was responsible of his death shouldn’t be punished although that is not what the law say

                    Ok… Looking through your profile, I’m guessing you’re French speaking. That is not at all what I said or meant, neither is it what the law says (the law hasn’t said anything, since by definition there needs to be a trial and conviction before the law can be considered to have said anything).

        Nobody has ever denied that censorship can sometimes be good. The problem has always been who gets to decide when it’s good and when it isn’t?

            Okay. Fine. Who do you want to have control of what you can see, hear and read?

              I think Kick should be able to censor streams on their service that are showing torture. They are not, and should not be, obligated to provide their services to show that content.
