Free speech may be banned by any mega corporation, because they are a private for-profit company and can therefore do whatever they want. Oh, sorry, Google is a --public-- for profit company, is a near monopoly, and can therefore do whatever it wants. Because banning a competing communication platform which has no agenda per-se other than to enable the free speech that for example is being trampled on by Google, is OK when you slander that platform with something like: Google: this is an App already! and this app "Advocates against groups of people" Really? One of those never gonna present a fact "Razer" moments evidently, but this time from a global near-monopoly behemoth for profit "public" company, which has all sorts of statutory privileges by virtue of its statutory nature - almost an arm of the government. Alright, Google is an arm of the US Government, effectively, clandestinely, and ultimately quite publicly, as essentially every USA corporation is. Google - where slander is ok when it's from Google, and also when Google's slander is against an App and not against a human. Lauren "Kangz Rule" Weinstein is sounding more like Razer by the day... Way to go Lauren, celebrating slander, suppression of free speech, and the dictatorial rights of public mega-corporations - you're a real peoples man hey?

Gab, the conservative social network that has acted as a haven for people banned from the usual platforms, has been removed from the Google Play Store for violating the company's hate speech policy, the company announced on Twitter. Apple removed it from the App Store in June for similar reasons. That policy is pretty straightforward: "We don't allow apps that advocate against groups of people based on their race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, nationality, veteran status, sexual orientation, or gender identity." - - - Bravo! --Lauren-- Lauren Kangzstein (lauren@kangz.com): https://www.kangz.com/TheKang ----- End forwarded message -----
