Topics
Mark Zuckerberg: 我相信政府施加的压力是错误的,我后悔我们当时没有更直言不讳地表达出来。我们做了一些选择,事后看来,有了新的信息,我们今天不会再做这些选择。我们准备在类似的事情再次发生时进行反击。 Mike Solana: 扎克伯格的转变越来越偏右翼。我认为扎克伯格想做好事,但他这个声明来得太晚了。政府利用虚假信息带来的经济损失为借口,对私营公司施压,限制言论自由。我不明白为什么政府被允许私下与公司交谈。 Brandon Gorrell: 我认为扎克伯格想做好事,但他这个声明来得太晚了,而且这些信息非常重要。政府私下要求公司提供信息或审查内容,这是对法律或标准规范的明显违反,扎克伯格应该早点说出来。扎克伯格的声明可能与即将到来的大选有关,他可能在规避风险。扎克伯格的声明来得太晚,如果他当时就公开反对,会更好。 Riley Nork: 将错误信息定义为经济上不利的事情,政府以此为借口向私营公司施压,限制言论自由。我们不知道这些第三方事实核查员是谁,他们为谁工作,以及他们是否会对他们的结论负责。我更喜欢将信息保留在算法中,让其自行解决,而不是由第三方事实核查员或政府来决定我可以看到哪些信息。我不信任任何个人或机构来决定我可以看到哪些信息。问题不在于政府要求审查,而在于Facebook同意政府对什么是事实的看法。我们已经知道这些信息了。人们变得越来越右倾。 Brad Polumbo: 扎克伯格的信揭露了拜登-哈里斯政府对言论自由的蔑视。扎克伯格后悔没有公开反对政府的压力。我对扎克伯格的声明有很多问题,尽管我欣赏他的原则。扎克伯格的行为可能是为了迎合当前的氛围,也可能因为他最终认识到自己之前的行为是错误的。

Shownotes Transcript

EPISODE #67: This week, we’re joined by Brad Polumbo to discuss the news of the week.

Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, was arrested in France this week. Is this a free speech issue, was it politically motivated or neither?
