Turley Talks

Ep. 830 We're Losing Free Speech Online

Broadcast on:
24 Jan 2022

Highlights:   

  • “People think that censorship works and that it makes communities more safe and that if you hide this information then somehow it’s going to go away and it’s going to convince people to not look for that information but actually none of the peer-reviewed studies showed this.” -  Bill Ottman

 

  • “If anything, what we’re building is more of a sort of, visualization of the debate so that you can see the arguments and citations on both sides of any topics whether it’s about Covid or abortion, climate change, anything. Don’t tell the user what to think, just show them the debate.” - Bill Ottman
  • “Twitter is not facilitating healthy discourse. And same with the rest of them. They’re acting like they care about keeping everybody safe and keeping the conversation healthy but it’s not. It is a sanitized distortion of the global conversation. And that is incredibly damaging to the planet’s ability to understand what is real and what is not real.” - Bill Ottman
  • Censorship only moves the problem, it doesn’t remove the problem.” - Dr. Steve Turley
  • “I think we’re moving into a world where it was like ‘network first creators last’ and now it’s ‘creators first network last’.” Bill Ottman
