Yet another reason to reign in the freedom of platforms, as you say they aren't following the law they make their own laws that are much more hostile to the little guy.

> Yet another reason to reign in the freedom of platforms

Forcing platforms to host material that may, arguably infringe copyrights or trademarks isn’t a solution.

What’s needed are bright-line rules for determining fair use. Bright-line rules, however, are basically impossible for all but the simplest cases. Most cases are far too nuanced or deal with novel uses.

(It’s “rein in,” like a horse.)
