Supreme Court Dismisses Allegation of Biden Administration Coercion in Social Media Content Removal
In a recent ruling, the Supreme Court has dismissed claims that the Biden administration coerced social media companies into removing contentious content.
The court overturned an injunction that would have limited contacts between government officials and social media platforms on a wide range of issues.
The decision was reached in a 6-3 vote, with the majority finding that the plaintiffs did not have standing to sue.
Writing for the majority, Justice Amy Coney Barrett stated that the plaintiffs, which included Republican attorneys general and social media users, failed to demonstrate that they had suffered harm at the hands of specific government officials.
She pointed out that social media platforms had already been moderating content independently before any alleged coercion took place.
Barrett emphasized that this was not enough to warrant a sweeping injunction.
