The government has been exerting censorship pressure on American companies, which I believe is illegal and could lead to criminal charges for those involved.

Companies are often victims of government pressure, but those funded by the government may find themselves in a precarious position regarding censorship.

Government should not exert any form of pressure on companies to censor, as it undermines the principles of free speech, and this administrative power is exemplified by Facebook's Libra project, which faced threats from senators warning banks against collaborating with them, highlighting the use of state power without formal laws or regulations.

Once a censorship system is established, it can be pressured to expand its scope beyond illegal content to include other topics.

When the government holds power over social media platforms, there's a risk that it could be misused for political or financial gain, undermining our freedoms.

Social media platforms are losing their status as neutral carriers by censoring content, which exposes them to liability and pressures from both sides of the political spectrum.

The US First Amendment has multiple carve-outs, meaning that certain types of speech, like incitement to violence and child pornography, are not protected.

The intertwining of government and large corporations creates a situation where companies must comply with government demands to avoid scrutiny and potential penalties.

To address government overreach, voters must elect representatives who oppose such actions, and there needs to be transparency about past censorship practices, including investigations and potential prosecutions for those responsible.
