As we know, there is a virtual monopoly on social media platforms.   Google, Facebook and Twitter essentially control what we see on their most popular platforms.  I don't think anyone would argue that there is not a certain bias in their rules and enforcement of same.

There are other platforms out there,  but most are obscure, barely known.  

A solution is a Social Media Aggregator.  

As an example.   Suppose you want to search for a video on a subject.  You've heard about one that covers it,  but YouTube has decided it does not comply with it's "Community Standards" so it "Pulls" the video.

But that same video exists on another platform.  There's a good chance that Google may have decided to exclude that platform from it's search engine, or more likely,  it will bury it on page 22 of the search results, frustrating most peoples attempts to find it.

A Social Media Aggregator will allow you to find this video, and other information that the mainstream platforms have deemed "harmful". 

The question is...    What will the social media giants do to restrict these alternative sources of info.  It may be interesting to watch and shed additional light on the lengths  to which certain entities will go to control information flow.
