Dictatorships don't answer to the people. It's absolutely a problem that billionaires are controlling the flow of information, but it's much worse for a dictator to do it.
I don't see a difference tbh.
Dictators do things like build and use rape rooms or throw people they don't like out of helicopters.
So as long as this one specific billionaire hasn't had someone killed (that we know of) that makes it okay for that one individual to have complete control over what people have access to?
