I think you make some good points, I'm a bit torn on this topic and am not sure what to think yet. I do however agree that preventing the user from hiding any topic they don't want to see is harmful.

Platforms need to add common-sense controls like category blocking and family modes (which the user can craft themselves).

My biggest complaint here is the platform deciding what I want to watch.
