Your final point makes sense, its just how you and others in this thread are arguing it. No doubt platforms with the reach and targeting that Facebook and Twitter enable need better, more appropriate regulation. Banning Trump is not the event that has given prominence to that thought leadership though, it has been around for a long time. Zuck even testified about it, so it isn't a new point bought upon by this. Infact, linking Trump being banned, the odd point about handover of the presidential account being inappropriately handled, all just make a mockery of what is a serious topic that a knee-jerk reaction to would likely cause an even bigger problem. And typical westerners, we are ignoring all of the other global platforms out there that are MUCH bigger and have MUCH more influence.
