Users decide

There is much discussion about controlling information on social platforms. The obvious answer is to put content moderation in the hands of users. If you decide you do not want your Tweets next to an ad from the My Pillow Guy then you as the user notify Twitter and they will follow your request. If you don't want your Tweets next to any political campaign ads then say so. As long as the platform follows the request of the users everything will be fine. Each day more information is revealed showing how various government agencies are using private companies and NGO's to influence what platforms can show. This is unconstitutional and as these things are exposed actions to prevent such indirect censorship will stop. The government cannot be trusted and exposing these activities is the best way to stop it.
