NEW: Supreme Court rules for tech companies in the legal battle over Texas's social media law, overturning (for now) a lower court decision that would've let the law take effect as the legal challenge plays out.

Good morning! If you're just tuning in, Twitter has agreed to pay $150m in penalties after the US accused it of violating user privacy (and a 2011 settlement with the FTC) by using account security info for targeted ads without disclosing it. https://t.co/RHVMnNtAtx — PolitiTweet.org

I am begging SCOTUS not to newsdump the HB 20 decision on Friday afternoon. Just… please don’t — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
Twitter says in a blog post that the use of the info for ads targeting was a mistake and that it was first disclosed in 2019 https://t.co/IaeKZF5sQC https://t.co/7f90QJ6yR8 — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
Twitter has agreed to pay $150M to settle the allegations, in a new agreement that also bars it from profiting off of "deceptively collected data" and to allow for multi-factor auth methods besides phone numbers. It must still be approved by the court. https://t.co/Ejr3cluKU6 https://t.co/ToetGoeESd — PolitiTweet.org

The US government has sued Twitter, alleging it misled users about how it handles their contact info in violation of a 2011 settlement. The complaint alleges that for years, Twitter failed to tell the public the contact info helped marketers target ads: https://t.co/vluUUgMV0S https://t.co/5LM9jELsP5 — PolitiTweet.org

Like, is his plan to limit talk on Twitter around shootings to give perpetrators less attention? Would those tweets fall under his rubric of "destructive to the world" / "wrong and bad"? How would this play out in Texas, where Twitter can't block or ban stuff? Serious questions. https://t.co/AgTOsdIZSP — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
This is interesting, but there is zero mention in here of the fact that this guy is about to own a major media platform himself, and no sign they asked him about how his version of Twitter would handle conversations and attention around mass murders https://t.co/MHCuAT4gcG — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that critics can even claim that they're being discriminated against by social media platforms is evidence the companies are First Amendment speakers, the 11th Circuit says. (The judicial equivalent of pointing out a self-own.) https://t.co/YyUnH5xQLv — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
For more details on the 11th Circuit's reasoning, see page 18-19 of their opinion: https://t.co/UZ3rUJ89CV — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
So, we now have the 11th Circuit and the 5th Circuit basically saying opposite things about social media moderation, which further highlights the stakes of the pending Supreme Court decision. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
The 11th Circuit also holds that "it is substantially likely that social-media companies—even the biggest ones—are 'private actors' whose rights the First Amendment protects," contrary to TX and FL who argued 1A isn't involved because social media firms are common carriers. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
This comes right as the Supreme Court is expected to decide — possibly as soon as today — whether to let Texas's HB 20 remain in effect. Both cases are viewed as bellwethers for the future of content moderation. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
NEW: The 11th Circuit has ruled for tech platforms in the suit over Florida's social media law, SB 7072 (similar to Texas's HB 20). The court holds it is "substantially likely" that FL's content moderation restrictions violate the First Amendment. https://t.co/XYHMmKozdE — PolitiTweet.org
