    Idk if it’s a reasonable thing to say that a newspaper reporting on a case of academic fraud is responsible for the death by suicide of the alleged perpetrator of that fraud…

      Interesting username you’ve got there.

      I don’t know either neither.
      I do have a question for you though.
      Do you think youtube influencers are responsible for their content and can they get demonitized for it?

        Idk about that either. In the real or the abstract.

        I think right now the companies that host the services demonetize people and if I remember right the responsibility for content is a part of the communications decency act in the us. There’s an ongoing fight on weather to get rid of the section that gives immunity to the carrier of a message intended to originally make bell telephone not responsible for when you yell slurs at someone through the receiver.

        One interpretation of that section is that the platform isn’t responsible for the content on it and they like it that way and tbh that’s why they demonetize people because it gives them the chance to avoid people interpreting it the other way, that platforms are responsible for the content on them which would be all well and good except for the fact that it would apply to cox cable and l3 and everyone who carried your hypothetical slur ridden twitter post to the twitter server and also to you for wickedly using tls to obfuscate your hateful language from those innocent companies and usher us into ultimate surveillance hell world.

        but none of what I wrote matters because the dead man and newspaper in the op are both on the island of England which is inhabited entirely by degenerates whomst the communications decency act doesn’t apply to.
