"Supreme Court's Potential Impact on Online Speech and the First Amendment"

During Supreme Court arguments, Justice Brett Kavanaugh staunchly defended the right to free expression, criticizing Texas and Florida's laws that restrict social media platforms' editorial control. Kavanaugh emphasized that government restrictions on speech violate the First Amendment and highlighted the distinction between government censorship and private editorial discretion. He also rebuked Justice Samuel Alito's suggestion that content moderation is Orwellian, asserting that true Orwellian behavior involves state control of media. Despite personal opinions about Kavanaugh, his defense of free speech on the internet in this crucial case is noteworthy.
