This is one of the reasons Jim Rob cites (and I believe for good reason) for using their own servers to host Free Republic instead of farming it out.
It is possible Free Republic might decrease costs and improve services by having them hosted, but they would be subject to the whims of a company that either won't stand up to being bullied by the left into dropping hosting, or is in active collusion with the left to eliminate opposing points of view.
They would certainly label Free Republic as "hate speech" simply because they disagree with much we post, and cannot refute it in the arena of logic and rhetoric. So they take the shortcut by default of trying to gag their opponents.
In the case of this particular issue, they would simply maintain that support of freedom of speech and freedom of assembly when it comes to some radical cause means that you support, and are part and parcel of that radical cause, and are therefore guilty of..."hate speech".
Offensive Content. Content that is defamatory, obscene, abusive, invasive of privacy, or otherwise objectionable...
They give examples of child porn, etc but those are an incomplete list.
They may:
investigate violations of this Policy or misuse of the Services or AWS Site; or
remove, disable access to, or modify any content or resource that violates this Policy
Here is a thought.....Jim Robinson could look into starting his own small or medium webhosting business with servers and services ...be a “godaddy” for businesses and constitutionally minded organizations....he can increase revenue...keep Freerepublic open (and the other lib “godaddys mentioned can’t on a whim knock him off line)!
