Gatekeepers of our lives [Censorship Internet]

WHAT'S WRONG WITH women's nipples? Or rather, why do some social-media platforms allow men to post topless pictures of themselves, but ban women from doing the same thing? The answer to this question neatly encapsulates the key issue of online censorship today. We may think of the online world as a global commons, a public space for free expression, but it is increasingly a series of private spaces within which we are given limited permission to act. Our access to each other and to the resources available within these spaces is increasingly being controlled not just by law, but by gatekeepers whose motivations may include political advantage, social control, or simple profit.
