White House ‘flagging’ posts for Facebook to censor over COVID ‘misinformation’
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday the Biden administration is identifying “problematic” posts for Facebook to censor because they contain “misinformation” about COVID-19.
Psaki disclosed the government’s role in policing social media during her daily press briefing after Surgeon General Vivek Murthy called on companies to purge more pandemic posts.

Facebook should have the freedom to remove any information they choose. They are not "censoring" it because that same information is available on thousands of other sources.
We do not need government telling Facebook what it can and cannot display on its site. Government cannot require you to express views you find objectionable--that is free speech.
If you don't think you can find sources that present false COVID information (YouTube), then you haven't looked. It is available-Facebook should not be forced to display it.
Thankfully, we have the 1st Amendment to protect that free speech from those who want government repression.

No, this speaks to section 230 special immunity for mega corps. That removed the peasants' rights to sue them.
" CompuServe and Prodigy, which were early service providers at that time.[19] CompuServe stated it would not attempt to regulate what users posted on its services, while Prodigy had employed a team of moderators to validate content. Both companies faced legal challenges related to content posted by their users. In Cubby, Inc. v. CompuServe Inc., CompuServe was found not be at fault as, by its stance as allowing all content to go unmoderated, it was a distributor and thus not liable for libelous content posted by users. However, in Stratton Oakmont, Inc. v. Prodigy Services Co., the court concluded that because Prodigy had taken an editorial role with regard to customer content, it was a publisher and was legally responsible for libel committed by its customers.[20][b]"

Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.
D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.
Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".
Social media are platforms owned by their parent companies.
I don't see how "free speech" should even apply to them.
Nobody needs to be free to speak on somebody else's forum.
Our real problem is that so many Amerians are horrifically stupid enough to think that "social media" are anything remotely important.
People who consider time spent on social media to be anything but a passing amusement are unnecessary people who don't need to exist.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775

Terrible decision. If a platform serves the purpose of allowing customers to express free speech the platform should not be sued for those comments. Maybe the current Supreme Court would allow more free speech rights or modify libel laws. Do those same regulations apply to JPP.

Even worse, they snuck it in disguised as the Communications Decency Act.
"The anti-indecency portion of the CDA was immediately challenged on passage, resulting in the Supreme Court 1997 case, Reno v. American Civil Liberties Union, that ruled all of the anti-indecency sections of the CDA were unconstitutional, but left Section 230 as law."
I think it applies to JPP. Which is why the Texas law exempts sites with less than 50 million users.
