I get how some people could think of it as that, but at the end of the day, it's our call on how to handle that.
But I mean, I just, in terms of running these services, won't have access to as much information about what people think that adversaries might be trying to do as possible.
I guess what I'd say is there's so much pressure from all sides that I'm not sure that any specific thing that someone says is really adding that much more to the mix.
There are obviously a lot of people who think that...
that we should be censoring more content, or there are a lot of people who think we should be censoring less content.
There are, as you say, all kinds of different groups that are involved in these debates, right?
So there's the kind of elected officials and politicians themselves, there's the agencies, but I mean, but there's the media, there's activist groups, there's, this is not a US specific thing, there are groups all over the world and kind of all in every country that bring different values.
So it's a very active debate and I understand it.
These kind of questions get to really some of the most important social debates that are being had.
So it gets back to the question of truth because
for a lot of these things they haven't yet been hardened into a single truth and um society's sort of trying to hash out what um you know what we think right on on on certain issues maybe in a few hundred years everyone will look back and say hey no it wasn't it obvious that it should have been this but you know no we're we're kind of in the in that meat grinder now and you know and and and working through that so um so no these are these are all are all very complicated and
some people raise concerns in good faith and just say, hey, this is something that I want to flag for you to think about.
Certain people, I certainly think, come at things with somewhat of a more kind of punitive or vengeful view of like, I want you to do this thing.
If you don't, then I'm going to try to make your life difficult in a lot of other ways.
But like,
I don't know.
This is one of the most pressurized debates, I think, in society.
So I just think that there are so many people and different forces that are trying to apply pressure from different sides.
I don't think you can make decisions based on trying to make people happy.
I think you just have to do what you think is the right balance and accept that people are going to be upset no matter where you come out on that.
