The US Supreme Court has kept efforts by Texas and Florida to regulate social media platforms on hold, ruling in favor of platforms like Facebook and YouTube's free speech rights. The court emphasized the platforms' protection from government intrusion in content moderation decisions, similar to newspapers. Trade associations representing the companies challenged the laws, which aimed to address conservative complaints of censorship. The justices returned the cases to lower courts for further review, emphasizing the importance of editorial judgment in free speech.
