While most are distracted with issues like the economy, the war in Ukraine, Hurricanes and such, there is a power play in progress that is putting the freedom of the internet in the cross-hairs. First is the case with the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals’s recent ruling in NetChoice v. Paxton. Essentially preventing internet platforms from moderating content. At first sight, this would seem like an attempt to get internet companies to stop with censoring and targeting conservatives, however this recent ruling is possibly opening an entire new can of worms that will have the opposite effect of just trying to curb the liberal hive minds who are making arbitrary decisions in the name of partisan politics, but rather put such controls in the hands of Government. This is a slippery slope as some would argue.
Have a look what the leftist rag "the Atlantic is saying about this troubling case
I think it is worth noting how its coincidental that when this story broke, the Horse mouthed New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern is making her rounds at the UN currently pleading her case with a recent speech advocating for tighter controls on the internet by demanding Global Censorship laws. As you can probably imagine who is ultimately behind this push as Ardern is Klauss Scwaab’s puppet child and they are not hiding the fact that having control over the internet means less scrutiny for their insidious “Climate Change” propaganda campaign and an entire host of other sinister plans they have advertised at the World Economic Forum that they plan to implement.

Its why most freedom loving people despise her and the other lowlife vile scum known as Justine Trudeau because they love some Totalitarianism and are willing to do the bidding of the Global elites without reaching a global consensus on such matters like Global climate change but instead want to insure they control the narrative. The internet and controlling it is their target.
Back to NetChoice v. Paxton
Earlier this month, the court upheld a preposterous Texas law stating that online platforms with more than 50 million monthly active users in the United States no longer have First Amendment rights regarding their editorial decisions. Put another way, the law tells big social-media companies that they can’t moderate the content on their platforms. YouTube purging terrorist-recruitment videos? Illegal. Twitter removing a violent cell of neo-Nazis harassing people with death threats? Sorry, that’s censorship, according to Andy Oldham, a judge of the United States Court of Appeals and the former general counsel to Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
A state compelling social-media companies to host all user content without restrictions isn’t merely, as the First Amendment litigation lawyer Ken White put it on Twitter, “the most angrily incoherent First Amendment decision I think I’ve ever read.” It’s also the type of ruling that threatens to blow up the architecture of the internet.
If this case is ruled in one way such as blowing up the internet, places like these may see some turbulent times and become threatened as a result along with freedom of speech in America. As the saying goes, there are no coincidences as we can clearly see Ardern as an example moving in waves to subvert freedoms regardless of Sovereignty of other nations such as America a country that is not hers to begin with.
