Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis held a news conference Tuesday to announce the support of legislation to protect social media users' privacy, saying "big tech has come to look more like big brother with each passing day."
The governor said the legislation will seek a slew of changes that DeSantis says will protect privacy and censorship by social media platforms.
He called out Facebook, Twitter, Google, Apple and Amazon for being "nameless, faceless boards of censors."
"Over the years, however, these platforms have changed from neutral platforms that provided Americans with the freedom to speak to enforcers of preferred narratives," DeSantis said.

Red states should prevent tech leftists from operating in their states for interfering with elections.
And just where the HELL is Governor Greg Abbott of Texas? Shall we issue an APB?
bingo
Good start. States need to protect their citizens from the cancel culture too. Nobody should lose their job over their political beliefs.
they are in the weeds keeping up with Biden EO’s.
TX AG Paxton was on War room this week.
it may be that they are already looking into something for big tech.
I thank God I’m not in a state like MI,or PA
They are on the Front Line.
New York and California are already behind enemy lines.
You go Guv!!!!! Give ‘em hell...
GOV DESANTIS ROCKS!!!!
So very proud of our governor!
As Nixon said when Desantis was elected....
“You won’t have Florida to push around anymore!”
As I sit in the condo the gf and I rented for the week in Clearwater Beach, we’re both discussing leaving Hellinois for Florida. We like it here that much!
Gov Desantis is the man!
This guy is emerging as a great leader. Watch this.
He’s my choice for 2024.

That gorgeous white powder sand is sure enticing, especially when you turn on the Chicago channels and see the snow. I don’t regret it at all from Jersey blizzards of ‘93. Lot’s of growth going to happen here with tech and finsec and other companies. Plus you get an instant 8-13% raise for no state income tax.
My wife was telling me the guy in the front of our neighborhood - selling his house By Owner - then gave to realtor. Realtor says there’s a waiting list of 50 people - it’s that hot.
Someone on NewsMax said he is the best governor, and I agree with her, he is the best!!!
Heard clips from his comments on a Boston talk host’s show today. I like this guy...I like him a *lot*!
Do you want to trade governors.
Georgia will trade Ratburger and Kemp for Desantis.
This is a bit premature, but different forums, including this one, indicate Floridians really like this guy. Watched videos of him, he has a more nuanced version of Trump’s fight in him. Will he be the nominee in 2024?
Thank God for men like DeSantis.
He is a knight who is not only willing to stand against these Satanic demons, but is ready to stab them in the chest with a very fine steel blade.
I say bring on the class action lawsuits and DESTROY these evil leftists with totally justified financial ruination.
I keep saying that he’s the BEST governor Florida ever had. God bless our Governor DeSantis!
