Gov. Abbott at a press conference just said the suspect posted to Facebook 30 minutes before the attack saying he intended to shoot his grandmother; later, that he shot his grandmother; and about 15 min. before the attack, that he would "shoot an elementary school." — 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

For more details on the 11th Circuit's reasoning, see page 18-19 of their opinion: https://t.co/UZ3rUJ89CV — PolitiTweet.org

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

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

Tweets containing claims that outside experts — NGOs, journalists, conflict observers — deem as misinfo are subject to labeling under the policy. Special attention will be paid to government-affiliated accounts, Twitter says. — PolitiTweet.org

The effort to draw up the policy predates the Ukraine war, but is being applied there first amid continuing allegations of Russian war crimes and information operations. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter says it'll now label and suppress misinformation surrounding crises like armed conflict and natural disasters, under a new crisis misinfo policy meant to slow the spread of viral falsehoods "that might bring harm to crisis-affected populations": https://t.co/nAlwmkqYvV — PolitiTweet.org

Just in: Texas has filed at SCOTUS in an attempt to keep the state's social media law in effect. It argues HB 20 does not violate the First Amendment because it regulates conduct, not speech and also because it labels social media as common carriers: https://t.co/UED7nu4KmR — PolitiTweet.org
