What counts as "spreading"? Do cell phone companies kick off customers with views they disagree with? Where is the line?
- pcl 9y agoThat suit is filed against a government agency. Free speech protections in the US constitution are focused on preventing the government from stifling speech. These protections do not apply to private citizens or corporations.
- joelrunyon 9y agoAh - good clarification. Did not know the specific status (if it was actually the agency or a company that provided ads). Thanks.
- astrodust 9y agoIt depends on where the line in the sand is, or if that kind of discrimination is legal or not. If AT&T wanted to terminate service to the Stormer organization they could do it without consequence, it's not their responsibility to provide coverage to anyone plus dog like they were under regulation. It's a free market. Stormer can find someone else.
