Twitter Hit With Censorship Lawsuit America Has Been Waiting For
Quote:Social media giant Twitter is being sued by former New York Times journalist and best-selling author on Covid-19 issues Alex Berenson.
Berenson is best known for his heterodox views on the Covid-19 pandemic, which has assailed the mainstream media for putting out demonstrable misinformation and untruths about the virus and the vaccines.
Now, he is suing Twitter for selectively banning him from the platform and for tarnishing his reputation in the process.
“Mr. Berenson also has a uniquely viable claim that Twitter acted on behalf of the federal government in censoring and barring him from to its platform,” the lawsuit said.

Im still waiting for a class action suit to be filed for every business or individual that was censored, deplatformed, or throttled during the election. Mayny of these people used their Twitter feeds for commercial reasons---thus there is probably a massive amount of total damage to be had. This would come in the wake of Facebook now claiming its "fact checks" are simply "opinions".
