"China has the world’s most sophisticated system to censor the internet when it wants to....Yet the Chinese internet is laden with hate speech toward Japanese, Americans, Jews and Africans, as well as Chinese who are critical of the government."

New from me: In the Murthy v. Missouri ruling, SCOTUS says that the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana couldn't prove that government agencies pressured social platforms into making content moderation decisions. @WIRED https://t.co/epUNe2ucno
