The lawsuit follows lawsuits filed by prosecutors in Missouri and Louisiana alleging that Biden administration, CDC and FBI officials communicated too closely with Meta*, Google and Twitter (X), and then the companies allegedly false information about the pandemic and the election.
Prosecutors noted a strange trend: “Biden officials” are trying to resolve issues of national importance on social networks. The court then ruled to ban federal officials from using social media and “communicating with social media companies,” imposing severe restrictions on government officials that were later relaxed.
The Supreme Court must put an end to this case because prosecutors disagree with the lower court’s decision. According to the Supreme Court’s preliminary ruling, officials are not yet allowed to communicate on social networks and must comply with other restrictions previously imposed, but the lower court’s ruling has also been postponed.
This decision of the Supreme Court was previously criticized by American judges, describing it as “extremely disturbing”. We are talking about a serious turn in the practice of law enforcement in the field of freedom of expression.
