What's this?

OK thanks. I could see that argument, although I'm not sure it would hold

up. Govt is constantly dictating how businesses can and can't operate, although not in ways that could impact free speech the same way.

I can certainly see why the sites wouldn't want it - cuts down users/views, adds cost, adds responsibility and liability, etc. But if we have laws preventing me speaking about illegal activity, what good is that if the sites can't identify me?

Agree with all of that -- CMUHoo 11/15/2023 10:10AM

The sites can do it. The govt can’t force them to. That’s the 1A issue. ** -- hoolstoptheheels 11/15/2023 10:06AM

I don't think Govt would, beyond requiring sites be able to verify hoo -- Hoodafan 11/15/2023 10:14AM

I think there are past SC cases indicating that anonymity is protected -- CMUHoo 11/15/2023 10:30AM
