As far as I know, fair use still exists ! When it’s sharing things for educational purposes, it’s beyond the public school system. An artist could mention art that inspired them while sharing a link. It could be education, discovery, word of mouth, history & positive influence.

Big tech companies have a lot of power and control over the internet, and some say they're on the path to killing it. By using fediverse, we can take back control of our online experience and preserve the open and democratic nature of the internet. Join the movement and

Google / YouTube has a Artistic, Education, Scientific & Documentary page on the social media community guidelines
support.google.com/youtube/ans as well as Fair Use support.google.com/youtube/ans . THEY NEED TO REMEMBER THAT ! Why doesn't Meta & other social media capitalists do the same ?

Imagine if " fair use " was gone and the internet was only accessible to THE RICH & POWERFUL ! Just like media, only accessible to the entertainment industry conglomerates and government. The internet would only be television & shopping !

Like the entertainment industry, the internet is ONE OF THE WORST BUSINESSES EVER ! Those who succeed, sell out ! The focus is on censorship, gatekeeping & advertising instead of opportunities for freedom of speech and expression especially artistic expression !

The future of social media community guidelines ? *GULP !* What about fair use, human rights, freedom of speech & expression ? Arts, education, science & documentary ?

The problem in general with social media community guidelines is that most are disorganized, complicated, patronizing & vague. It doesn't have an educated, understanding of problematic / toxic anti-social behavior. It violates human rights by having no balence.

When I think of the internet, I like to think of it as a public library at one's finger tips as well as accessible opportunities for anyone in the force of good. In my opinion, that's how the internet should be.

You know that situation where your favorite content creator account / page / channel disappears because internet capitalists didn't like them even though many followers / subscribers do ? Exactly.

If Elon Musk is tired of what he perceives such complaints as only annoying " left leaning " whining that isn't of any use to him, perhaps he refuses to admit that he turned Twitter into a far-right clubhouse for toxic ignorant hateful / fearful people, more so. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Elon Musk wants people to become codependent & reliant on ONLY TWITTER ! :( Why is one that starts with M on the ban list ? Why did Richard Nixon want to outlaw hippies & rock musicians ? Why was the court jester fool punished by the king ? EXACTLY ! EVIL HATES GOOD !

Elon Musk says Twitter is against you mentioning any website other than Twitter.
Sounds familiar ( besides Trump ).
"Thou shall have no other gods before me ! "
It's content creators / users that make the internet. It's workers that make this world go round. Think about that.

Just because Elon Musk took down some post ( Tweet ) / policy page, doesn't mean Twitter changed it's mind in outlawing any mention of websites EXCEPT THEIRS ! Twitter might as well be the Elon Musk message forum of praise, just like Trump's equally garbage far-right site. 🤢🤮💰
