A federal judge has rejected a lawsuit that Rep. Tulsi Gabbard filed in July against Google, which alleged that the platform was censoring her free speech. Last July, Gabbard filed a lawsuit against Google, accusing the company of violating her First Amendment rights to free speech when it briefly suspended her campaign’s ad account.
In an unrelated matter, the judge just bought a yacht.
Google is private, they can do what they want. We can pass regulations though, to ensure freedom of speech on their platform. But what’s better is to break them up, making search independent as a platform not tied to any other divisions that serves all businesses equally. oligopolies must always be broken up for the sake of competition and distribution of power.
Just use duckduckgo
sorry mericans, free speech don't get to the table these days. it's ole school.
Corrupt judge almost as rich as lifetime congresswoman Pelosi - - 100millionaire Took Pelosi 50 yrs at 150k per year.. Took this judge one shitty decision.... BUT BUT BUUUTTTTT... the US is a country who values and holds up. The rule of LAW
Not good. They are acting as a platform and should be treated as such.
Google is more powerful than the US government.
Well the extreme left Democraps and their media lapdogs do not believe in free speech for those that opposes them so...
They need to start using the safe harbor provisions and have Google no longer a safe harbor.
No matter how much guys wanna screw Tulsi, the DNC and Leftist media already did.
Every now and then, I wish an System Wide Debilitating Electromagnetic Pulse over Silicon Valley that fries every computer and internet infostrucure there. This is one reason why. It's only a matter of time before I start asking for nukes.
Freedom of speech is a right of the people by the government, not corporations. The fact that Tulsi doesn't understand that proves she was't worthy of winning.
so can we arrest every single google employee there or shall we have to take the law into our own hands?
Of course. No surprise here. Now what’s the news?
The thing here is that the first amendment is protestion against government infringing on our free speech. There has to be another approach in dealing with them. I just don't know what it is. For starters, use browsers and search engines other than Google. And stop saying "Google it".
No surprise here, tossing it out was 100% the correct thing to do. A private company can accept, reject, or suspend any business relationship it wants to, at any time, pretty much with or without reason. Its a little thing called free market capitalism get used to it.
this isn't good. this means Google has the right to manipulate their search's in order to influence people a certain way or another.
