The Americans just had a big election, and Canada’s next has been effectively underway for a while now. Automated moderation systems are being increasingly relied upon by large social media networks and are running amok with bans (I may be biased on this one, see [“The Technology Deleted Me”]( https://scalebright.ca/blog/2024-10-07-the-technology-deleted-me)). Opinions are everywhere, and many social media users live in fear of getting booted from their platform of choice over an innocuous post. “Of choice” usually being where the largest concentration of their connections also have accounts. For me that’s Facebook; for others it might be Instagram, Snapchat, Bluesky, or X.
