Social media responds by banning all Florida politicians.

So if Twitter were to ban Osama Bin Laden (assuming he weren't dead), or some other horrible dictator or leader who could be considered a "politician" in their part of the world... they'd get fined by Florida?

If this is the only way to stop deplatforming, fine with me. People should have access to the commons unless they are advocating censorship or posting illegal content. Otherwise,<p>&quot;sunlight is the best disinfectant.&quot;--Oliver Wendell Holmes

Why politicians only?<p>IMO big part current tech tragedy is lack of support - companies raking record margins, yet we keep reading horror stories how accounts getting banned for asking a question, etc.

How would Florida enforce this for a company that isn&#x27;t based in Florida? Or for deplatforming politicians outside Florida? I don&#x27;t see how they have jurisdiction here.

Strangely you are exempt if you’re a kind of entertainment company with a large volume of customers.
