NBC News: Federal judge puts Florida ‘deplatforming’ law on hold, citing First Amendment
A federal judge Wednesday put on hold a first-of-its-kind law in Florida that authorized the state to penalize social media companies when they ban political candidates, a win for social media companies as they try to keep control of their platforms.
This is a blow to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis who signed this into law.
