Refusing to relay paedophilia is not censorship. It's refusing to relay 
paedophilia.

Would you feel you were "censoring" if you received a physical envelope full of 
child porn with a note saying "share widely" and didn't?

This is ridiculous. For starters it's an individual, voluntary refuaal to.offer 
a platform, not state censorship, that's being called for.

*Even if it were* state-censorship, free speech is critical but speech that 
directly incites abuse or violence is generally accepted to trump the primicy 
of free speech, because we have a right to not be murdered or raped that's, 
frankly, a lot more important than unfettered free speech.

This isn't protocol-level censorship. This is a user-level filter that will 
help us choose what speech we amplify and share with the world. I don't use 
networks that force me to relay child porn, so Twister's lost my advocacy the 
day it fails to let me choose. (Hint: I'd jump aboard a fork that does the 
right thing)
