Since we’re talking about the messaging component of services , what messaging service “[editorize] said content?

[arbitrarily deciding what is and isn’t allowed] Everything so arbitrary. Either allowing everything or nothing is not sustainable for anything on the internet so you need arbitrary rules to stop arbitrary things.

This proposal covers more than messaging. I don't know of any messaging services which editorializes content.

It doesn't need to be so complicated. Allow lawful content and maintain your neutral status, or only allow content you choose and become a publisher.
