The Supreme Court told the US government how to interact with social media companies

US Supreme Court Justice Sam Alito has said the majority of the court allowed a “successful campaign of coercion” to stand as an “attractive model for future officials who want to control what people say, hear, and think”. In his dissenting opinion, Alito further said the case shows the “need for social media companies to be prepared for the government’s coercive tactics”.
