Yup.

Microsoft, Google, Amazon and tech peers sign pact to combat election-related misinformation

How the HELL are they going to fairly say what is or isn't misinformation WITHOUT invoking their political bias?

They can't. They will use it to electioneer for the Left.

The First amendment's guarantee of Free Speech is gone due to the Tech industry.

Watch the Benz interview. The objective is to remove the First Amendment. He mentions Richard Stengel several times. This guy served as Undersecretary of State for public diplomacy and public affairs from 2013 to 2016 under Obama.

"In a Washington Post op-ed titled “Why America Needs a Hate Speech Law,” Richard Stengel, who once edited Time, begins by recalling, “When I was a journalist, I loved Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.’s assertion that the Constitution and the First Amendment are not just about protecting ‘free thought for those who agree with us but freedom for the thought that we hate.’”

"But a three-year stint at the State Department caused him to rethink his views. “I came to see how our First Amendment standard is an outlier,” he explained this week. “Even the most sophisticated Arab diplomats that I dealt with did not understand why the First Amendment allows someone to burn a Koran. Why, they asked me, would you ever want to protect that? It’s a fair question.”
