If they are a platform there are certain tax advantages that they get, but then they have limitation to what they can ban from their site. If they are a publisher, they can limit what gets shown on their site, but they don't have the same tax advantages. FaceBook, among others are trying to have it both ways and Congress is letting them.

That is a lot of "if...then". What FEDERAL tax breaks, specifically?

It looks like I am mistaken about tax breaks specifically. The advantage surrounds legal liabilities and if they can be sued in court of not. Still an advantage they want to keep while acting as the other.

Thank you.

It is like this. They are a "dynamic" advertising company. If they like your product (opinions, life style, pictures), it stays, and the echo posting keeps going, pushing adverts to eyeballs.

If you do not fit in the "shelf space" of facepukes ideal marketplace, you get booted. Simple.

imho, they should be subject to the same laws as advertisers. That would stomp out the "subjective" rulings of what it is or isnt.

Please remember, facepuke was guise of social media. It is actually a VOLUNTARY NATIONAL REGISTRY. Frogs in a warm pot, the citizens are!
