This is exactly the corporate kiss of death I've seen over and over. If I can't use your product/community/whatever without being assaulted by the sexual fetishes of others, then it's just ultimately chase away customers who don't subscribe to those fetishes. Now your growth and future outlook is just much less than a competitor.
A common con in capitalism is to sell people on "free-speech" and "anti-corporate" agendas in your capitalist corporate product. I think most sensible people see through this, but there's a segment who just take to it pretty well and they tend to have marginalized and very questionable ideas about politics, race, religion, age of consent, boundaries, and justifiable terrorism.
Every "free speech" equivalent to the big players has failed and badly. Voat can't touch reddit. Parlour can't touch twitter, etc.
The real problem with these companies is that ultimately they want growth and profitability, thus when they try to expand out you now have the "Nazi Bar" problem, where the marginalized end up owning the establishment and chasing away everyone else.
Good moderation, protection of minorities, protection of LGBTQ people, protection of women, curtailing all hate speech, strict penalties, etc is the formula for success whether the tech libertarian crowd likes it or not. This is why your company has HR policies like this too. Once you let in the first Nazi into your bar, its over.
I suspect the protocols defined in the link provided do not require protocol users to be assaulted by the sexual fetishes of others. If you don't want to be assaulted by the content on Porn Hub, don't go to Porn Hub.
