I sure hope he wins this suit. Won’t be holding my breath though.
“Class-action lawsuits are very effective.”
Good. I hope millions file. Sue the crap out of them.
Why do I see this suit being tossed for “no standing”?
Would love to see him win, but I need to see the legal arguments.
To use any of these sites you need to agree to their terms and services. That functions as a contract. All of them demand the right to do whatever they want, and for you to surrender the right to sue them.
Trump has good lawyers, and they may have found a loophole, but big tech can afford the best lawyers in the world.
There was absolutely no reason to cut off the President of the United States from the public...because they say they can.
No standing. Dismissed without comment.
There simply is no more rule of law in this country, and no one is holding liberals accountable while conservatives are persecuted.
I wish I could join the suit, but far as I know I have never been banned by the defendant companies. Of course, I’ve never joined Twitter, have only a small anonymous presence on Facebook for horse racing info, and don’t have anything Google would be interested in far as I know — except, of course, info about me that they mined (stole) from my legitimate online activity.
One of the biggies is that he is a Public Figure. If they shut down one....then they must shut down all. We’ll see.
This lawsuit goes outside the box by showing a partnered effort by the Rats with totalitarian Big Tech.
It’s a very good play.
If he loses the case...he is constantly exposing the greedy creeps who run a glorified BBS. if he wins...alternative sites will get more traffic and he gets the creeps to lose money. Either way, he is fighting. Either way it exposes those who side with big creep tech and anticonstitutional censorship.
“big tech can afford the best lawyers in the world”
Lawyers are for the peons. Big Tech can afford Judges, and Branches of the gov’t. Why leave anything to chance?
I would love to see him win this but I doubt it will see the light of day. Too much corruption with lawyers, judges, and the court system.
Fantastic strategy. Win or lose, the important thing is that this man FIGHTS. He does not lay down and roll over like so many. GIVE THEM HELL!!!!
I think the question of judges will be decided upon the filing. Trump will nit file in a court that will declare he has no standing. Also, he will file where he has an appellate court advantage
Trump will use a weaponized court turn about’s fair turn
“..To use any of these sites you need to agree to their terms and services. ..” the problem becomes when they toos people out because of their opinion it brings them into a new category. Akin to a Baker saying they wont bake a cake for a gay wedding.
“..Standing is the ability of a party to bring a lawsuit in court based upon their stake in the outcome..” he has standing, he can show damages, and because there were/are others they will all be part of “the Class”. look to the asbestos suits being filed even now.
Fantastic strategy. Win or lose, the important thing is that this man FIGHTS. He does not lay down and roll over like so many. GIVE THEM HELL!!!!
This may be the opening move of a larger play. I don’t see Trump pinning all his hopes on just one strategy, especially one that depends on lawyers and judges.
