Did you ask?
Trying to help is hard. See the case of Somalia.
Yes, there are other worse problems. But misinformation ISN'T free speech. Just like an anti-democracy organization using democracy to cancel elections isn't democratic.
You're equating speech anarchy with free speech. They are not the same.
- nradov 3y agoThe US Supreme Court and I disagree with you: speech anarchy is the same as free speech. Attempts to block misinformation inevitably turn out worse than the misinformation itself.
- invalidname 3y agoI don't live in the USA so no. The US Supreme court took both sides e.g. "yelling fire in a crowded theater" is a limit on free speech by the supreme court. Copyright is upheld by the supreme court, etc.
- nradov 3y agoThe example that you're using is ridiculous and doesn't even support your point. https://www.whalenlawoffice.com/blog/legal-mythbusting-series-yelling-fire-in-a-crowded-theater/ https://www.whalenlawoffice.com/blog/legal-mythbusting-serie... I give thanks every day that I live in the USA where we have a written Bill of Rights and a Supreme Court with the courage to stand against government overreach.
- invalidname 3y agoSeriously? Your country is banning books... I suggest learning a bit about other countries. The reality is freedom of speech is always a tradeoff in every country. There's always a line. The USA draws it inconsistently and erratically all the time. I would never want to live in the USA. Don't get me wrong, I love your country. But a country that can just go on about the second amendment after the murder of school children isn't a place I would ever call home.
- junofan 3y agoI’m not aware of any banned books. Under the Tenth Amendment states have the power to select books for school libraries.
