> When we cooperate with law enforcement, we do not do so blindly. We review their activities, both for abuse of power and to make sure proper processes are followed to protect our members’ rights. Such things are vanishingly rare, not (as they are sometimes depicted) the default. So if you’re expecting that we will automatically say, “Shove it, coppah!” anytime the police come calling about your site, we’re not the right service for you.

They're going to capitulate to law enforcement without a court order if they don't like your politics... or if it's inconvenient for them.

You: "They're threatening to discriminate against people who like the ex-President!"
