Big Tech Censorship — Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Section 230?
- Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act generally shields online platforms from liability for user-posted content and for good-faith moderation decisions. It is central to most debates over online censorship and free speech.
- What counts as Big Tech censorship?
- The term generally refers to platform actions such as removing posts, suspending or banning accounts, reducing a post's reach ("shadow banning"), or demonetizing content — as well as government pressure on platforms to do so.
- Where can I follow censorship news?
- This page aggregates censorship and free-speech headlines from many publishers in one continuously updated feed, each linking to the original report.
