The cleaving of Big Tech continues, only this time the move of company headquarters by the Rumble video hosting service appears to be a proactive move to avoid government intervention and regulations requiring platform providers to censor speech. Rumble is moving from Toronto, Canada to Sarasota, Florida.
As noted by Glenn Greenwald, “Canada is actively creating laws to impose civil or even criminal liability on social media platforms that don’t censor enough,” as a result, any content platform provider could be subject to civil or criminal liability if they do not filter content based on ideological demands of the government.
Canada and the EU are both working on laws that will define acceptable speech and the various platform hosts who give a place for online content will be held accountable. The goal of the left-wing ideology is to censor speech they view as against their interests (ex: COVID vaccination etc). Not accidentally, this same framework to stop speech has now moved to the U.S. congress as ideological activists are creating the background for U.S. regulations. That’s the motive behind Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen {Go Deep} who has testified and advocated for controls over speech in the U.S. and U.K (link).
This regulatory push to make tech platform providers like Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and now alternative venues like Rumble, Telegram, Locals, Substack, etc subject to regulations, civil and criminal punishments by bureaucratic government panels, is actually the reason why CEO Mark Zuckerberg changed the company structure of Facebook.
The creation of “Meta” as the parent company of Facebook was fundamentally a risk management strategy, limiting liability, more than anything else.

By itself the 100 worker rule, in combination with the exemptions being provided by the federal government for some politically connected union organizations, would seem to undercut the premise of the “national health emergency.” If the COVID pandemic is such a national threat, why would any groups be excluded from the mandate? However, until the Dept of Labor rule is officially registered, court cases to hear such arguments are not possible.

Right now, as you are reading this, under the guise of enhancing your safety, the U.S. federal government is in discussions with multinational corporations and employers of citizens to create a more efficient process for you to register your vaccine compliance.
