#6Good to see the Valley is starting to get off its "we are just a platform, all information should be free and neutral no matter how bad, so we're not responsible" extremism of the past few years and understand that some forms of speech are harmful should not ever be encouraged and accelerated on any platform or technology, ever.
To the people that say "Where does it end?" – that's pretty easy. Let's start with curbing speech that encourages harming others.
They've been dragged kicking and screaming into this realization but we'll take it.

I guess that is a bigger question. And I think they’re free to answer it as they see fit.

This is not the bigger question.

People will never stop blaming human issues on businesses and devices. It's much easier to blame Facebook and demand they change that it is to get people to change.
