McSherry told Ars that major service providers like Cloudflare can become "chokepoints," where lawful speech gets taken down because, regardless of intent, "they can't be precise in what they do" once their platform gets too big and reports get too numerous. She agreed with Senk that a few large companies controlling vast amounts of content online can be problematic.

"It is true that there are a relatively small number of companies that have outsized influence over what is available online," McSherry said. "And that can be really difficult or create a real problem because sometimes they don't have any choice but to sort of overcensor."

"In this case, "there was just big companies using big processes and not being careful," McSherry said. "And that is not acceptable."
