Good for her! Europeans generally don't have the same commitment to free speech as Americans do, but even Merkel sees this as going down the wrong path.
What she actually says is that what you should be able to say should be defined by law and not dictated by private companies. So it's more like if the government doesn't like what you say.
Thanks -- I was not able to read the actual article.
I am on the same page as her. In the US we have not had the slightest problem with the government censoring us; that has all befallen us thanks to companies being bullied by social activists, perhaps especially by their own employees.
I can deny the Holocaust if I'm stupid enough to do it.
And if I were a schoolteacher I could wear a cross around my neck. Granted, that's on the border between free speech and religious liberty, but they are very much intertwined in any case.
