'The online debate over free speech suuuuucks, and, amazingly, it's getting
worse
. This week, it's the false dichotomy between "freedom of speech" and
"freedom of reach," that is, the debate over whether a platform should override
your explicit choices about what you want to see:

It's wild that we're still having this fight. It is literally the first
internet fight!'

reason to hate streaming playlist bullshit)"
