Ep 44 — SCOTUS Decides Not To Break The Internet … Yet (Feat. Corbin Barthold)

Liz and Andrew talk to Tech Freedom’s Corbin Barthold about two recent SCOTUS decisions involving conservative efforts to claim victimhood on social media. In Murthy v. Missouri, Missouri and Louisiana complained about the Biden administration’s efforts to push back against covid misinformation on social media. And in Moody v. Netchoice, Florida and Texas attempted to impose state controls on what social media platforms may restrict.   Links: Murthy v.
