The Supreme Court of the United States is set to consider the two cases involving Florida and Texas’s social media laws, signalling a hugely significant court battle in the United States about the questions of free speech and social media regulation. This court battle comes at a moment when democracies around the world grapple with similar issues.
The 2022 Beaverbrook Annual Lecture will consider the US case and address broader questions surrounding free speech and social media regulation. Such questions include: why do we protect free speech? Is free speech still worth protecting? Why is free speech online more complex than free speech offline? What kinds of regulations should we oppose in this space and which should we welcome?
