263: Censorship by government and big tech

from Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill · host Pigweed and Crowhill

The boys drink and review Crowhill's 2022 Christmas Ale, then discuss censorship.  Is it okay for search engines to "curate" our search results, based on what they think we should know and be exposed to?  Should medical associations or journals crack down on doctors who propose alternative theories or treatments?  What about when the government gets involved and asks Big Tech to ban certain people or certain messages? Is it right for the FBI to tell Facebook what to suppress?  Is it different in times of war?  The boys think through the issues and come to the conclusion that there's too much censorship in the world today.
