[liberationtech] Fw: [progressiveexchange] Facebook interfering with activism Pages

[Lauren Gelman]

ahh. The question that launched a thousand debates.  There is *never*  
a quick answer to this question (i.e., does freedom in iraq mean free  
speech or free elections?) For your question, I believe in the former  
(substantive requirements) but their are many firmly in the latter  
(procedural equality) camp. I'd prefer to see affirmative privacy  
protecting features in Diaspora but they are banking instead on the  
"market" approach-- that as long as users can take their data  
elsewhere, activists will be able to create/find a provider that meets  
their needs. Time will tell.
