I'm pretty sure HIPAA laws (in the US, anyway) would prevent such activity, for the same reason(s) that California deemed it acceptable to retract their requirement that HIV-positive people disclose their situation with potential partners.
Myself, I am fortunate enough to be able to work from home, so that is not a problem. I know several of my friends in Meat Space aren't quite as fortunate.
How are you all passing the time?
Also I wrote a song called Caves of Steel.

I think it is not fine to ban ideas.
So yes, allow cult recruiting, mentally ill people posting, anorexia promotion. All of that. Yes. Absolutely.
There is a potential difference between not-promotion, and censoring. There is definitely an expressed desire among some to censor, ban, block objectionable content like videos promoting pizzagate and other nonsense. I think that is insane.
