Large technology companies are facing seemingly unprecedented liquidations. Although former President Donald Trump is leading a class-action lawsuit demanding punitive damages from Facebook, Twitter, and Google for platforming him, an antitrust lawsuit against Google is also in the making, and the lawsuit received 36 Support from all states and the United States. District of Columbia.
The piper is Request payment.
The lawsuit was filed by Utah, North Carolina, Tennessee, New York, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, and Nebraska. It was filed in California federal courts. It is a series of actions against the biggest players in the technology industry. The latest in a major antitrust case. The growing wealth and power of Silicon Valley is brewing unhappiness.

In addition to Wednesday’s lawsuit, Google also faces lawsuits filed by the Department of Justice and 14 states in October. The lawsuit focuses on Google’s dominant position in the mobile search market; from 38 States and territories submitted in December, and Focus on search; the third lawsuit in 15 states and territories involves Google’s control of advertising technology.
Trump’s lawsuit is a bit More personal.
These cases are based on the assertion that Trump’s freedom of speech was denied by these companies.In addition, in the complaint against Google CEO Sundar Pichai and subsidiary YouTube, Trump and his other plaintiffs demanded declaration Article 230 of the Communications Standards Act-of which Block social media companies From responsibility-is unconstitutional. Their reasoning is that if Congress is prohibited by the Constitution from doing the same thing, Congress cannot legally encourage private censorship of speech.
Trump is right. It is usually unconstitutional for state actors to suppress his speech because First Amendment Provisions “Congress shall not make any laws…deprive freedom of speech or the press.” But social media companies are not congressional or any other state actors. They are private companies.with Private companies cannot violate The first amendment. On the contrary, they may have their own First Amendment rights, and these rights may be violated by the state.
Regardless of the legal value in any of these cases, the general acceptance that large technology companies have become a potentially negative force with excessive power seems to have gained a foothold. Legislators and ordinary Americans are pushing these companies from both sides to demand damages and supervise them. As an old saying goes: if it is everyone, it is you. It may be you, big technology.
