What are you doing? Are you trying to ban speech you don't like? What body determines what is "fake news" and "hate speech"? It can't be done, which is why the only sane policy is free speech.
We have laws against violence, and it's a very clear line.

I think there's a place for Apple to get this right. They have a music streaming service that makes sense. They're a major player in the podcast space. They've long sold digital music, TV, and movies. Apple has been in the content game since the early days of the iPod. A properly executed Apple TV+ could fit with their brand.
But you're right, they're fucking up.
To me, Apple's content tends to be way too safe. It's boring. (Or, at least it was boring when I saw it.) If I want straight-down-the-middle-of-American-culture-type content, I already have Disney+ and way too many other choices. If they want to grab my attention, they need to take some risks and/or find their niches.
This is what I appreciate about the other major tech company with a me-too streaming service: Amazon. Prime Video is willing to take risks on weird genre stuff, and some of it is really good. I could never see Apple releasing something like Fleabag or The Boys. That perception is probably why Apple TV+ has been so forgettable. Boring has no place in Apple's branding.
>They have a music streaming service that makes sense. They're a major player in the podcast space. They've long sold digital music, TV, and movies.
The transition from a music store to a music streaming platform made sense. "Hey, you know the music that you could have bought so far? Well, now you can stream it."
Not so much for the movie/TV show business. "Hey, you know the TV shows and movies you could rent and buy? Well, fuck those, we have ten original titles that you should watch instead."
Apple TV+ doesn't feel like it builds on top of the experience and connections made with the movie/TV show renting/selling business. I just opened up the Apple TV application on my iPhone and the What to Watch list is rather sad. First one is USS Greyhound, which might actually be a decent watch. Next one is "Greatness Code", doesn't really look like my cup of tea, but probably it's probably not crap. In third there's "The Gentlemen" - oops, only available for purchase at 13.99 euro!

In other words, diversity creates problems that otherwise wouldn't exist.
