Yeah. If you don't like it, don't play it.
Just like I'm going to bash every single fag I meet, it's the same thing.
If they don't like it then alt+f4.

it's their service. they can do whatever they want with it

"Free Speech" only applies to the government. If you think that companies shouldn't be allowed to control their product, you're a communist.

Also to clarify you braindead fucktard ameriturds do not understand what free speech is.
It has nothing to do with private companies, it's about the government.
Fucking 15 year old subhuman fucking Any Forumstoddler monkeys trying to discuss politics is the cringest fucking thing on the internet.

Just play on pc on community servers.

Think about it this way, if companies don't have said power, companies cannot ban tranny and gay propaganda.

Big tech is not just a private company. It has far more influence in daily life than any government. Stop being a snivelling coward.

You unironically have to have brain problems to think that microsoft does shit to your day to day life in your third world shithole. Truly you ameriturds are brainwashed beyond belief.

It's an international corporation, it can do whatever the fuck unit wants.

Yes. its a service. That you agree to. If you dont like it than leave. Free speech is a government issue. Not a company's

Just remove female protagonist games out of this shit for fuck sake you spineless scums.

When did Any Forums become bootlicking central holy shit

when lefties started coming over from reddit
no one likes the taste of corporate dick more than anti-capitalist leftists.

It should be very obvious that it's not a free speech platform. Don't use it if you don't like it.

When did election tourists invade this board you fucking bitchboy.
Nobody here cares about this shit you stupid fucking faggod. Go cry about the big man on your reddit circlejerk subreddits.

Holy shit /p*l/ is really rotting brains.

You have freedom of speech. Microsoft is free to tell you to fuck off somewhere else if they so choose.

I feel like this isn't a problem if you were nice instead of mean.

You guys rely to hard on boogiemen

People who defend and justify this are cowards and bootlickers. I hope you get reduced to absolute silence and get all your shit banned with no recourse over some dumb bullshit. You deserve to be nothing, to have no voice, no freedom of thought even whatsoever, to be forced into absolute unconditional submission. For your corporate and political overlords. I spit in your face.

If you say yes and agree with the propaganda then it's not a big problem.

>fuck niggers free speech amirite fellow poltards xD
Children who come on here should be unironically be publicly executed. It was fine back when we slowly grew up as the internet did but zoomer fucktards are straight up too fucking stupid to filter information and post shit like How fucking brain damaged do you have to be?

Obviously not. I just have a hard time understanding how being mean is even an issue.
Here are the steps to take if you play an online game with voice:
>options
>audio
>mute all
And then you never have to hear anyone at all. First thing i do in every online game if I can.

you sound like the type of person that never goes out and relies heavily in your PC to communicate with the rest of the world. get out more often from your basement faggot big tech is controlling you

What boogiemen you fucking subhuman mouthbreather? You are the only one crying about muh big tech.

Kill yourself.

>It has nothing to do with private companies, it's about the government.
Spoken like a true burger who thinks that "laws" are merly words on a paper. I swear "people" liek you are the reason why the west is falling on every single important societal issue.

1st amendment was made back when msm wasn't a thing. If you can't see why it should be extented beyond the government, your IQ can't even heat water.

Yes. They do this so people learn not to use their ingame chats so they can save money and time on jannies.

Being racist, sexist or transphobic has nothing to do with free speech.

Watching that webm made me feel like punching someone in the face

Long live ventrilo.

You are the most braindead newfag election tourist to ever touch this board. You don't belong here.
Kill yourself stupid fucking normalfag.

I'm from yurop. You do not understand what free speech is you underage monkey. Kill yourself back to twitter where you belong.

Your third world shithole does not concern me you mudhut sandnigger-tier subhuman.

When they start policing your speech they are forfeiting their liability protections if something said on their plataforms has serious consequences. Sadly this is not the case, they get the whole cake.

>plataforms
Why do people who can barely speak their own language think they have something worthwhile and intellectual to say?

If any linkage between the govt and private business can be shown in furtherance of a private entity censoring at the behest of the Govt all involved could be subject to a million dollar fine and 10 years in jail.

After 2024 all these tech companies better have their ducks in a row. Republicans will be looking for blood.

Any piece of trash that even refers to people as "lefties" doesn't belong here. This is an imageboard dedicated to Japanese culture. Hillbillies never belonged here.

I think they should be legally allowed to, but I also think they're stupid if they actually do. The government on the other hand should not be legally allowed to

>zoomers and millenials are too brain rotten
and you are?

Human rights are a social construct. They don't exist. It's up to the people to draw the line on bullshit before it gets out of control. Controling speech is extreme level of bullshit and kikery and you should not defend it, especially when It's done by malicious corrupt multinational corporations.

Shut up groomer.

You fags were all for us during the faggot cake debacle but now you're pissy when the shoe is on the other foot?

Everything feels so isolated these days, i don't even communicate online anymore because i don't want companies to steal my games back

washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/01/27/sex-trafficking-allegations-matt-gaetz/

It's so cute when you guys learn a new word.

not an issue, i also have the right to not use it

The thing about free speech is that people need to separate the legality of an action restricting it and the morality of it. Should a company be allowed to not host speech it disagrees with? Of course, legislating something like that would be a nightmare. Should they be condemned for acting immorally? They damn well should be. In practice it does not matter if free speech is restricted by the government or big corporations and lynch mobs. End result is that nobody gets the benefits of free speech and society suffers as a result.

You know it's not about that you disingenious cunt. Read their TOS, they're extremely vague and basically mean they can and will ban you over anything and everything. It's just not worth interracting with these chats because you're constantly walking on eggshells. Also if these things bother you so much grow a thicker skin, the world is not fantasy land where everyone gets along. People will be mean to eachother because It's human nature so stop being a pussy and get over it.

yeah redditors made themselves a home here any legit discussion is washed with their endless shitposting. redditors don't encourage discussion. they just know how to shill and push forced memes like bane and shit

i never was, i don't even believe it should be legal to bake cakes

If they own the platform then yeah

Maybe you should remember to hide your power level, dumbass. Back in the day people with half a braincell could remember that the rest of the world isn't Any Forums.

Yeah and what came of that?

It's utterly fucking insane how liberals suck billionaire cock more than any conservacuck. What the hell went wrong? These people were supposed to be championing our rights as humans, not selling us out to people who live lavishly on private resorts or yachts.

Again: Being racist, sexist and transphobic has nothing to do with free soeech.

why is kotaku's logo in the noahide law colors?

This poster put it well. Just because something is legal does not mean it's right. Censorship and restrictions on human communication is universally a terrible thing and you should always oppose it, regardless of regulations surrounding it even if it's a totally private multibillion public company that's used as a public place and has government contracts and subsidies...

Everything has a terms of service, even the literal public square has an unspoken social contract of decorum. Complete unfiltered free speech is not really a thing.

You're also free to have opinions on the actions of companies, and allowed to complain about their decisions. And free speech doesn't only apply to the government, it's an ideal and basic human right that the First Amendment was created to protect. There's the legal concept and the cultural concept, and promoting free expression in society is important. Legally, companies have the right to restrict speech, and obviously not everybody should be forced to allow all discussion on their platforms. However, if it's taken too far, and a few companies become too powerful and control too many of the dominant platforms used to communicate, it can become a big problem.

Not talking about what Xbox Live specifically, I haven't looked into it yet. But I really hate the silly "free speech is only about the government" line. And that XKCD comic they always post is moronic.

which of the ten commandments says not to be "transphobic"? fuck off you dickless space criminal

There is literally nothing you can do against companies """"""restricting your free speech"""""" because you are using a service and you will follow that service's rules

You have never had your right to free speech revoked when told to get the fuck out of a building for spouting garbage before and you have not had it revoked when you get banned for micspamming "NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA, NIGGA.... YOU ONE HUNDRED PERCENT NIGGA" in a FPS lobby

You fundamentally do not understand what Freedom of Speech *is* if you believe this is a violation of your rights and this is why you are ridiculed and derided on the rest of the internet; even Tumblr laughs at you

Why the fuck does everyone always assume Any Forums is hillbillies. I'm a hillbilly and I just wish you guys would shut the fuck up and talk about Nappletale or something. Anyone who uses Xbox Live is an idiot anyway, why would you even own an Xbox in the year 2022 of our lord unless you're young and cant into PCs yet

Crying "bootlicker" is not a good look for this.

There's no hate speech exception to free speech. Nor should there be one, not everybody agrees on what's too hateful to be said, and sometimes the truth is offensive to people.

You mean this one?
None of it is wrong.

So which US law or national law says "Free Speech only applies to the government"?

Ever heard of Plutocracy and Corporatism? Common subjects of dystopian story, that's usually how private companies say "free speech" and other civil rights only apply to government, so they can go down to replace government and control society by their own.

>sinking atlantis and thinking you're not going to space jail

lol

>There is literally nothing you can do against companies """"""restricting your free speech"""""" because you are using a service and you will follow that service's rules
The issue isn't just one company doing this, it's the broader trend of companies becoming more sterile, more heavily moderated and controlled, and less expression being allowed across society. Especially bad when fewer companies control more of the internet. I miss the 90s/2000s internet.

The Ten Commandments also says nothing about selling data.

Don't use slurs to communicate and you'll be fine?

>So which US law or national law says "Free Speech only applies to the government"?
The constitution

No

Things like OP exist because of sexism, racism and transphobia, so yes, it is about that.

If you don't like having people criticize you then don't play the game

I'm not American you idiot.

Why not? Slurs are fun. Banter and trashtalk used to be an integral part of video games. If you can't take the heat get out of the oven.

>hates america and "pol"

Look up alternative imageboards or webring websites then, fuck use Tumblr, Tumblr doesn't care, they'll only care if you're making actual death threats with posted intent to follow through on it or if you're a neo-nazi. "bill-clintons-left-testicle" still tells you to kill yourself on Tumblr just fine

Based retard

He's not wrong about the First Amendment and laws based on it applying to the government. But saying "the right to free speech" is just about the government not being able to arrest you is an overly limited understanding of the subject.

I would still prefer a less consolidated, and less heavily moderated, internet.

We seem to be misunderstanding eachother when we refer to "hillbilly" as "hillbilly" because most people calling Any Forums a bunch of slack-jawed hillbillies are referring to the stereotype of a dipshit inbred in the rocking chair with a shotgun

Maybe just call someone super lame if that's what you actually want to say

An impossibility for various reasons (if not "corporate consolidation" then certainly "the consolidated internet is more convenient to the lay-user") and, ultimately, you'd be trading heavy corporate moderation for heavy power-tripping forum moderators

>"Free Speech" only applies to the government.
Do you actually believe that statement when you mindlessly parrot it? It should be very obvious to anyone with three digit IQ that any value or ideal that isn't explicitly about governance extends way outside of government itself, or specific laws that exist to uphold that value.

pretty sure "uneducated" just means disagrees with tavistock

Don't dodge the question; how many child molestations are committed by faggots?

If you're not American, then you're not allowed to talk about freedom, because you have none. But since we're on that topic, groups like Facebook and twatter should in fact be held to free speech standard as they are used by the government to move propaganda, and the public reach is absolutely astounding, far beyond the normal bounds of a private entity

Any Forums probably.
