The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear two cases this term with the same issue: are social media companies exercising free speech by blocking others’ comments or engaging in censorship.
In NetChoice v. Paxton out of Texas and Moody v. NetChoice out of Florida, the court will decide the legality statutes that restrict social media companies from censoring or limiting content users post on their platforms.
In short, the government argues that restricting Big Tech’s ability to censor their users’ content violates Bug Tech’s free speech rights. “The Supreme Court held that when there’s a critical pathway of communication, that it is allowable for a state to protect that speech and the free flow of information,” Schneider said.
In confirmation of Big Tech’s dominance in the “marketplace of ideas,” Pew Research found in a 2021 survey, that more than eight our-of-10 Americans get news from digital devices.
