ahem name them as I very sure that freedom of speech via Constitution trumps weird reactionary without facts blithering.
In fact no US State has passed laws that will withstand review under the US Constitution restricting use of interstate commerce as its not a State power under the US Constitution but a US Congress power.
Yes, hard to believe but using any internet service is Interstate Commerce only under US Congress power not state power.
- Buttons840 4y agoI've discussed this before[0], dragonwriter has a good response explaining that this law is not automatically illegal just because it affects interstate commerce. I do hope you're right though, and that these laws are ruled unconstitutional. The Utah law is planned to take effect in early 2024. In addition to Utah, Arkansas has or will soon pass a very similar law. Then there is this article talking about Texas trying to regulate the internet by themselves.
