This US Supreme Court Ruling is a big deal
It means the government CAN pressure social media companies to censor anything
You can use technology like Nostr to resist it, BUT,
Technology can’t help you stop the state’s violence.
Therefore,
Without the privacy to post anonymously, there is no free speech.
Fast key facts to know about the case:
1) It isn’t over, it just got sent to the lower courts
2) Supreme Court dismissed it that “plaintiffs lacked standing”
3) This doesn’t mean it’s done, it means they have to prove (again) that they were harmed in lower courts
4) Dissenting judges cited significant evidence in favor of the defendants
We lost the battle. But the war can be won.
