If I understand the intent of the legislation is to ensure everyone gets to speak. That when it comes to big tech companies nobody gets to censure.

That could wreck a platform like FR or DU for that matter, which have a specified political purpost and bias. But it shouldn’t hurt big tech.

They can always implement the Parler approach. I can mute anybody whose opinion I don’t want to see again. I really like that.

I remember asking for something like that on FR years ago when the mormons were bombarding us with pro-mormon articles.

No one is stopping people from speaking. The question is can the government force a private entity like Twitter to publish speech they don't agree with.

Just because big tech is big doesn't mean they lose their fundamental rights.
