I don't know what internet you are on. That's the dead ass opposite of what Tim Wu is saying. He's saying very clearly that companies have too much power & saying very clearly he thinks algorithmic & other limitations trample in free speech rights.

> By presuming that free speech protections apply to a tech company’s "curation" of content, even when that curation involves no human judgment, the Supreme Court weakens the ability of the government to regulate so-called common carriers like railroads and airlines — a traditional state function since medieval times.

He's saying we should regulate these companies like common carriers. He's saying we shouldn't be allowed to have our news feeds be generated or curated by systems. He's saying the broadcaster has a right to send stuff to our feed whether we want it or not.

I don’t see where he’s saying we can’t have automated moderation, though. Rather, just that there’s no 1A rights assumed for BigCorps’ systems, and that there’s a danger to individuals’ rights if the court really concludes that BigCorps do have these 1A rights.

He's saying Big Corps don't have a 1A right to moderate. If you take that away, I'm not sure what your hoping will happen.
