Free Speech Decision: 5th Circuit Court Social Media Platforms Can not Censor Lawful Speech
Dangerous Data podcast (dangerous.ph) seeks to tackle the critical conversations happening today around Data Ethics, Data Privacy, Free Speech, AI and the application of policy that affects individual rights.
5th District Court Ruling on HB20 and the 1st Amendment lawsuit. Court stated that Social Media Platforms do not have the right to censor lawful speech of individuals.
Court: Platforms thus far have offered a rather 'ODD' inversion of the 1st Amendment, which protects every US Citizen as right to free speech but Social Media Platforms argue that buried somewhere within the persons enamored right to free speech lies a corporations unenumerated right to muzzle that speech. The implications of Social Media Platforms arguments are simply staggering, on the platforms view email providers, mobile phone providers, banks & payment platforms etc, could cancel the accounts of anyone who sends an email, makes a phone call, and spends money on a disfavored or unpopular political opinion, party, candidate or business.
What is WORSE is that the Social Media Platforms argue that a business can achieve a DOMINANT MARKET POSITION by holding itself as open to everyone to create a monopoly - as Twitter (Facebook et.al,) but then as Cementing themselves as the Town Square (a Modern Monopolist Town Square) these same platforms Unapologetically argue that they can turn and ban anyone they don't like and any speech that they do not like - for no other reason that they, the employees, wish to do so.
Today the Courts REJECT THE IDEA that corporations have a free willing first amendment right to censor what people say. BOOM!
