The Right Not to Speak: Why California’s Social Media Warning Law is Unconstitutional

GlobeAlert Desk · curated from AEI · North America

California and other states now are requiring social media platforms to convey subjective government warnings about the supposed dangers of platform usage. These laws likely violate the First Amendment’s unenumerated right not to be compelled to express state-sponsored viewpoints and thus needlessly squander taxpayer dollars through time-consuming and expensive litigation. The post The Right Not to Speak: Why California’s Social Media Warning Law is Unconstitutional appeared first on American Enterprise Institute - AEI.
