    Because it’s not a paid job

    I’ve said all the time that it’s an unpaid job, duh.

    and you’re not the social media manager

    Never claimed that. It’s an unpaid job to promote the product.

    you’re not representing the entire company with your PR.

    Entire company? No. Promote the hardware, a commercial product: Yes, very much yes.

      My point is that you don’t have as much responsibility to take on. If it was a paid job and a position, then it could arguably stir up controversy and give a lot of burden to the potential employee to not freak up their mouth and have people believe they said what the company believes. They also wouldn’t have to purge their social media account for iffy views.
