The Supreme Court has decided to hear a case which could have far-reaching ramifications on whether users can challenge the social media giants on the basis of Free Speech. The case could have broader implications for social media and other media outlets. In particular, a broad ruling from the high court could open the country’s largest technology companies up to First Amendment lawsuits.
That could shape the ability of companies like Facebook, Twitter and Google to control the content on their platforms as lawmakers clamor for more regulation and activists on the left and right spar over issues related to censorship and harassment.
What are your thoughts? Should users have a voice? Are those sites platforms or publishers? Have you ever had a post or page censored or deleted?

The Supreme Court’s biggest decisions of the term are coming. I thought it'll be good to have one thread, kind of a tracker of the upcoming decisions.The high court has 10 opinions left to release over the next week before the justices begin their summer break.
