If online business can be discriminatory, then why can’t all other businesses?
Why is it a violation of federal law if you don’t want to do business with some protected selfrighteous person, but places like facebook and twitter can discriminate to their hearts desire? What is the difference?
No difference, except you use the word, “protected”. Political ideology isn’t a protected class. Only homos, women, all races except Caucasion, etc., are protected. Our country is a mess.
I’m no lawyer, but I suspect it’s the agreement users sign on to when joining these sites. Likely the agreement allows the platforms to ban whoever they feel like banning.
If that’s the case, then the collecting of data is an excellent, reasonable step to take. Make it clear what the platforms are doing, then make make them defend it in the court of public opinion.
