I think the starting point was the judge’s ruling regarding Trump that these were public forums. That is one route that might apply. Alternatively, the services claim to not own the content, disavow it, yet want to choose it. The latter denotes responsibility. Make that costly enough and they will back off. Money.

Create, protect and maintain your own forums of Social Media.
That second condition is important. Be realistic and be ready to guard your conservative web from hacking attempts of liberals. Never, never think that Liberals will stay on their side of the fence and leave conservative posters alone. No.
Today’s Libs cannot tolerate the existence of any voices except for their own. They are the internet versions of the Tali-BAN.

A big demonstration outside Fakebook headquarters wouldn’t hurt.

I started to cancel my Facebook account, but was thinking: Maybe they want us to cancel our accounts. This action is very close to mid term elections.

We will not have a platform to pass election information to our family and friend this fall. Maybe this is a way to shut us down...

During the President election, I pass lots of good info that sway friends and family to vote for President Trump. News like the illegal email servers.

I will keep my account open until we get the Mid term election over. It is to valuable for reaching out to people. Facebook will have to ban me......

Taking down and replacing natural monopolies involves some special problems that are not well understood by cuckservatives and "libertarians" who don't actually know anything about economics or the industry, and can only recite the bumper sticker slogan "Free Markets" and think that "power corrupts" doesn't apply to the Holy Private Sector.
  1. "Alt-tech" replacements like gab.ai and bitchute are already in the works. A problem they are encountering is that the existing natural monopolies and trusts—along with the governments, NGOs and businesses that support and pressure them—have enough power to nip competitors in the bud by de-platforming them from electronic money transactions, domain name servicing, etc. The political discrimination from Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, Patreon, and other parts of the world's money-handling systems is an even more fundamental problem here than videos being censored. Before you can replace the worlds biggest tech firms who handle most of the world's communication, you also may need to replace the entire financial system.

  2. On a brighter note, a natural monopoly may get cocky and self-destruct. This may be happening.

“So How do we fight against Big Tech cenorship?”

1. Stop beginning thoughts with ‘so.’ Sounds high school.

2. Learn to spell.

3. Stop posting vanities in the news forum.

gab is kind of a pain. High maintenance where in you have to constantly “mute” people who post crap. Once they follow you, you see their posts. New members tend to run around and follow everyone so they can get exposure. The software/code behind it isn’t all that robust either. If they suddenly got triple the traffic tomorrow, I do believe the system would crash. It freezes up my browser after a while.

mewe.com looks to be a good replacement for facebook.

bitchute.com and real.video look to be good replacements for youtube but they’re not going to flourish until they can set things up so that people can monetize their content easily. Youtube has the advantage of being run by google and google has google ads and adwords which make up 80% of all internet advertising.

For things to change, people are going to have to be pro-active and help these other platforms become known. I have a fb account and my friend’s list consists of almost solely family. The only reason I go there is to see if anyone has been born, died, is in bad health etc. I’m sort of the black sheep of my family but I might be able to get one or two people to switch.

We just need two of everything. 2 youtubes, two googles, 2 scoops.

There is a big untapped market for tech companies founded or managed by conservatives. Remember that’s how foxnews was born.

Don’t use them, like not watching National Felon League on tv.

You can always boycott them. They make their $Billions from advertising based on web traffic and compiling data on your information. Believe me, I'd like to hit them back - HARD!

naaah...client server models are very 1990’s
distributed, peer-to-peer is whats coming-and that’s why the
Left had to accelerate its agenda past what the thrusters could bear. when this tech falls into place with the next level of computer architecture their ability to “control the narrative” will be completely lost

Maybe 10-20 million separate law suits might get their attention.
