Also, who are business licensed by..and what is a license.

@Groot I believe that's the issue that is coming to a head now -- publisher or platform? But we are in completely new territory these days; such a situation has never occurred before. Without precedent, we have to find the answer through careful deliberation and... CRITICAL THINKING -- Good luck to us with THAT! Anyway, I'm going to turn this over in my head for awhile... "bake my noodle" and see what comes up.

good point...

@Groot To your comment that "social media companies violating natural right by censor of free speech should be held accountable", see my earlier post. I point out that because social media aren't govt (or "Congress"), then their excuse is that the Constitution says, specifically, "CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW..." "We're not Congress! We're Twitter! We can make any 'laws' or rules we want!" <-- And so far, that seems to be the case. If they are legally determined to be "PUBLISHERS", they will in fact, be allowed to do whatever they want. As "PLATFORMS", they cannot abridge anyone's right to free speech. Which will it be?

Abe just called on live to find out if there was any info regarding the 8chan hearing..but the hearing is still ongoing so no info

First set of questioning finished. Lunch break then there will likely be another round of questions.

@B2 to me the publisher/platform is a business licensing issue and nothing to do with ones free speech. No business is free to violate natural rights any more than one can violate a right of another. In other words, a contract can not be valid when it is made to violate a natural right of a man.

Actually just got news that it is done for the day. There will likely be another round of questions on another day.

Actually, CodeMonkey said they took a lunch break and will probably be more questioning. Didn't say whether it would be this afternoon, but lunch break would indicate they'll be going at it again this afternoon
