I&#x27;m a fan and supporter of the EFF. And I&#x27;m not a huge fan of Nintendo. And yet, I find myself in favor of there being some social platforms where you can _escape_ from the grim realities of the &quot;outside world&quot;.<p>On one hand, I suppose it&#x27;s possible that a Nintendo Switch is the only outlet for protest or other speech for some people.<p>On the other hand, at what point is someone&#x27;s right to speech interfering with other&#x27;s rights to relax and decompress? Is a company allowed to set up a place for pure entertainment?<p>I keep trying to think of real-world analogies and the best I can come up with is someone wearing an obnoxious t-shirt to a specific venue where it is going to disrupt and disturb the other attendees.
