CCIA and NetChoice applauded Monday’s opinion in the Florida case.
“The First Amendment protects platforms and their right to moderate content as they see fit—and the government can’t force them to host content they don’t want,” Carl Szabo, vice president and general counsel of NetChoice, said in an emailed statement. “This makes it even more likely that the US Supreme Court will overturn the 5th Circuit’s split decision on the similar Texas law.”
