because they claim to be apolitical but they are making purely partisan decisions about what content they are hosting.

If they are going to simply host content then those protections are deserved, if they are going to make editorial decisions about content then they should lose those protections.

They claim that those protections are vital to their business model but then turn around and make business decisions showing that they are not.

I am simply suggesting that they should live by the same rules as other content providers if that is in fact what they are doing.

                              How so? (nm) - MIZ45 MU - 12/2 12:01:41
                                   Because the hard and tangible is facebook’s property - pickle MU - 12/2 12:27:23
                         FB is only obligated by what is stated in the contract - ashtray UF - 12/2 11:55:37
                              Totally understand that - MIZ45 MU - 12/2 12:00:23
                                   who said he violated a contract? - ashtray UF - 12/2 12:12:54

                                                       No; it would not be his property - pickle MU - 12/2 12:28:53

                                                                 In this case, money is the property - pickle MU - 12/2 12:31:11
