So then once a social media platform is integrated into our society our government should step in with heavy handed regulation and decide for the company what is right and what is wrong? Would that not then be suppressing that company’s freedom of speech too?
What if that company wasn’t an American company, what if it was a Chinese or Russian company? What if the company was American but the regulating government was foreign? I ask because we now have platforms like tiktok which is Chinese operating here in America. Do they have protected speech? Do I have protected speech on their platform? Does someone in India get protected speech on the platform if the viewer is in America?
