Well I suppose if I were put in power, and "only" had to apply the law (and not come up with censorship laws), the idea would be focus my effort to have the maximum effect. So perhaps not focus on an individual Twitter account with 10 followers, but do focus on influencers, media or politicians with 10's or 100's of thousands of followers. That's still a hairy prospect, because - justly - we are weary of censoring policitians. But if they are breaking the law, they are breaking the law (or we have to change the laws). And start with the few cases that are the most likely to be convicted. Those cases will then set precedent, be reported on in the press, and hopefully help society refind a path to legal discourse. A bit like we do with almost all other crimes really. For exemple, when people started flaunting COVID restrictions, we did not hire thousands more officers to enforce the law. We prosecuted the most willful cases, and reported about them in the press. |
