Yes, he’s deciding for other people who use the platform. It’s called Moderation.
It means that users don’t have to spend their time blocking stuff and can get on with enjoying the platform.
This is not the same as the government blocking everyone’s access to something. Where nobody can see certain content. That may be a free speech issue. If you want to see car company’s PR, then there are hundreds of other platforms you can go to.
This is free speech. The right to hear as well as not hear on a PRIVATE platform.
I think, that’s an example of excessive moderation.
While I understand that most people will not be interested in the content that capitalistic institutions provide, I think, censorship should only be supported, where it is absolutely necessary, eg: disturbing things, abuse and crime glorifying content.
I also think that most people won’t see their content, as they will not likely partake in car subs. And if they invade other subs comments, they can still be downvoted democratically, thus decreasing their visibility.
