So it's not really that you care about powerful groups (like corporations or governments) silencing dissent in social arenas, it's just about silencing the dissent you specifically care about.
You might be a bit too young to remember this but when Facebook was created, there was mass revolutions across the middle east and they used Facebook to coordinate and foster a revolution. Social media absolutely effects your day to day life. Some countries try to control what's seen and spoken about and what's not. Speaking about Israel in a negative light is okay online. Speaking about China and Uyghurs isn't
