Ngl, "brand safety" is a pretty dangerous idea. That's where tech companies start to get a justification to fiddle with speech.
It already exists. Just look how YouTube demonetizes whatever.
if you have to be paid for speech its not free speech.
Demonetisation in Youtube is not just about payment, it is also about the "reach" of your video -- demonetised videos get pushed to the bottom by "the algorithm".
Free speech also does not mean right to have your opinion disseminated by others.
That's definitely true, but it also means only profitable opinions get "boosted".
but thats the buety of other things. We all have to be ready to leave stuff if its bs. I was barely on facebook, only keep linkedin for job search purposes, and did reddit till it just got to crappy. Might leave this but because its independent I could leave my home for another federated region. I can block what I want which frees up less boosted content and if need be I will go to yet another type of platform.
