I think if what the lawsuit's pleadings allege is true, then it is as serious a violation of the Constitution as if the government had sent police to a street corner to shut down a speaker directly. The marketplace for speech may be changing, but the protection for free speech does not. The beaurocrats in the government should not be allowed to circumvent the Constitution by using 3rd parties.
