Free Information

Americans prefer free speech:
Support for curbing false information had reached its zenith in 2023, with 55 percent of American adults saying that the U.S. government should limit false information, and 65 percent said that tech companies should do the same. Conversely, only 42 percent of Americans said in 2023 that freedom of information should be protected even if it meant false information could be published, and 32 percent said the same about tech companies protecting free expression online. Now, 51 percent of Americans said that the government should restrict false information online, a four-percent dip from two years ago, and 60 percent say tech platforms should restrict false information, representing a five-percent drop. Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents are much more likely to support restricting false information than Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.
No censorship for them...
