Fucking clown-world article. So much obfuscation.
Supreme Court ruling continues to protect Google, Facebook and Twitter from what users post
No, it's protecting them from our all-caring government, and thus allowing them to give users (us) more freedom without being sued into oblivion because some nut-job posted threatening things.
The Supreme Court declined to address the legal liability shield that protects tech platforms from being held responsible for their users' posts, the court said in an unsigned opinion on Thursday
Oh noes, so they can't be blamed for what users post, and instead users still bear the responsibility for what they post? Isn't this how it should be?
The decision leaves in place, for now, a broad liability shield that protects companies like Twitter, Meta's Facebook and Instagram as well as Google's YouTube from being held liable for their users' speech on their platforms.
As it fucking should be, as much as I hate big tech.
What the "journalist" really meant to say is that it's a blow to totalitarian government, denying them a key tool that would help shut down free-speech sites like this one.
