TL;DR Summary

Voting technology company Smartmatic settles defamation lawsuit against One America News Network over false claims related to the 2020 election, marking the latest legal action by voting equipment companies targeted by conspiracy theories. Smartmatic's limited use in the election made it an odd target, but false claims linking the company to a conspiracy to flip the election gained traction. Similar lawsuits are ongoing against Fox News and Newsmax, while Dominion Voting Systems settled with Fox News for $787 million last year. The conspiracy theories have been debunked, with numerous reviews affirming Biden's victory, and Trump is facing legal challenges related to his attempts to overturn the election results.
