CORRECTION: BREAKING NEWS: Supreme Court blocks Texas law on social media ‘censorship’

The Supreme Court blocked enforcement of a Texas law banning online platforms from restricting users' posts based on their political views, representing a major win for social media companies.

Tech industry groups had said the statute would violate the companies' First Amendment rights and force them to carry "the vilest speech imaginable — such as white supremacist manifestos, Nazi screeds, Russian-state propaganda, Holocaust denial, and terrorist-organization recruitment."

An earlier headline on a breaking news alert incorrectly stated the outcome. See here for full coverage.
