#2 was about getting banned from services if you talk about the wrong subjects. I think one example given was youtube banning people talking about crypto.
That was bad example, there is a short book about people loosing their livelihood over stupid posts on their twitter[0].
To me that is starting to look like #2, not a clear cut but still. Its a mechanism of though suppression at least. You are literally risking you career over drunk tweet you made trying to be funny.

The full power of social media may be too powerful, both to the individual, and also possible threat-models to society.
The problem is that anonymous posting also have problems of lack of accountability. So we need to watch out for how to balance and use this power for good.
Our elites mislead all the time without repercussions. We are almost at the anniversary of " 2 weeks to flatten the curve". They lied and children have suffered. No school, no human contact. And it was all proven to be a failure.
You chose to listen to the wrong advice then. Our advisors stated "at least 2 years" at middle of March 2020. Their projections for vaccine was too pessimistic. But that's a bonus, and we still see that vaccine logistics is a hurdle to overcome.
