08 Apr Censored by Algorithms: The Truth About Online Moderation
Who really decides what you can and can’t say online? In “Your Post Has Been Removed,” Frederik Stjernfelt and Anne Mette Lauritzen expose how tech giants like Facebook, X, and Google have quietly become the ultimate censors—erasing posts, silencing voices, and shaping public debate on an unprecedented scale. Are these platforms protecting society from harmful content, or are they undermining free speech by deciding what’s acceptable behind closed doors? This episode uncovers the hidden power of Big Tech, the risks of letting private companies control online discourse, and what can be done to reclaim democratic oversight. If you care about the future of free expression in the digital age, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss!
