The Missouri v. Biden Censorship Case Just Ended in a Landmark Settlement. Here’s What That Means Mark Chenoweth

Recently, the New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA) reached a major settlement concluding the landmark Missouri v. Biden lawsuit against government-induced social media censorship. I sat down with Mark Chenoweth, president and chief legal officer of the NCLA, to discuss what this settlement actually means. The 10-year consent decree blocks the surgeon general, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency from pressuring social media companies to censor speech. “The federal government has now admitted that it was engaged in a very systematic operation of social media censorship,” Chenoweth says. So what does this mean exactly? What legal precedent does this set? What happens after the 10-year mark ends? And why a consent decree at all? Why was the lawsuit settled? We also discuss several other important cases that the NCLA has currently pending at the Supreme Court. One of them, Powell v. SEC, seeks to put an end to what Chenoweth calls the SEC’s “gag rule.” Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
