>If the closed web is a place where hate speech, harassment and bullying thrives, the open web can be, needs to be an experience where it does not.
I am strongly against this appeal to censorship. Luckily in the real open web, where you host your own content the incentives and mechanisms for censorship are few and difficult to achieve. No, my dream of the open web is diverse. Full of things people hate and full of things people love. Not just some gentrified, marketable, set of opinions from a narrow slice of the possible. The overton window has shrunk enough.
That's how the web was and how it can be again. Without extremes there's nothing exceptional.
