This is a civil matter, so it's in some ways more analogous to a google employee keeping quiet out of fear they'll be sued for violating a non disclosure agreement with google.
Or a rape victim being unable to speak out about the fact they were raped due to the terms of the settlement with the rapist.
I guess I'm saying limits on speech due to fear of being sued are not unusual under our system.
- tarakat 4y agoYour examples are contracts between private parties, entered freely. This is a contract with the government, signed under threat of prosecution.
- staticman2 4y agoMy examples involve the government (the judicial branch is a branch of government) limiting speech on behalf of Google or a rapist when Google or a rapist asks the government to do so by filing a law suit via the government's court system.
