This makes sense and, actually, it's good. LinkedIn is a private company and has to best serve their customers. Some of their customers are Chinese, so they need to make sure they can work well with China. They have every right to block anti-China advocates. https://twitter.com/...

No more school board announcements through Facebook. No town hall meetings can be posted there and they may not stream live there. There should be zero government presence on Facebook whatsoever. No more Facebook voting drives, which discriminate against those banned

If we say that Facebook can ban people, then we're saying it's not a public square “But it's NOT a public square” Then introduce legislation banning all gov't entities from interfacing with Facebook. It's inappropriate for them to use a tool that blocks their constituents.
