RE: Facebook is moderating my writings, are my rights for freedom of speech taken away? Does this depends on whether I say I LOVE YOU vs I HATE YOU.. . how about rest of the world?

Interesting. Although you didn't discuss whether this actually constitutes an infringement on freedom of speech. (I don't think it does)

Sort:  

well when one signs onto the FB the person accepted their conditions; so they know before hand rules of the game ..... it would have been infrin of FofS if it was not agreed upon and then they curtail your topics ...

But fb is just a private company that hosts your posts/ comments on its platform. If a user was censored (or even removed), they can always go to another company/ platform. I get that it hinders the person's ability to reach as many people as before, but fb is just sufficient to exercise free speech, not a necessity.
