In my opinion, the major ruling gets lost in the procedural details. Now that the 5th circuit has issued it's ruling I feel that much prior procedural issues could be eliminated.
While the court ruled that censorship is not speech, it also ruled that the platforms are common carriers. The comparison to telephone and telegraph companies is particularly on point. (I personally feel SCOTUS will re-affirm that censorship is a type of speech, but that the platforms are common carriers and can't refuse service to selected users.)
Big Tech's reliance on 230 (shield from liability) and repeated claims that they are NOT publishers, are also critical considerations, and should be mentioned, in my opinion.
I will not make any changes as Wiki, in my opinion, is often a hostile place. This is only my opinion, I respect if you have another, please respect mine. Have a great day. 2601:5C4:4301:217C:9123:5676:F99D:8C90 ( talk) 02:31, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
I note that this ruling, while very major is not yet a SCOTUS case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:5C4:4301:217C:9123:5676:F99D:8C90 ( talk) 02:33, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
For any editors seeking to add/edit info about the oral arguments on February 26, the transcripts are now available from the US Supreme Court:

I will note that currently there are several different places that need to be updated about these cases. We have:
I think it's fine to have this set of different articles, as they serve different purposes. We just need to remember that when we update one of the articles, we may (or may not) also need to update the other articles.
We may want to check for consistency, too. I could see, for example, someone updating the case summary on NetChoice and not being aware there is a larger article specifically about the case. - Dyork ( talk) 13:09, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
As of right now (March 2024), this article is confusing because it covers Moody v. NetChoice and NetChoice v. Paxton. Those are two different cases in reaction to two different state laws that have gone though different District and Circuit Courts. They have not yet been combined under the same name, not even in the early Supreme Court documents so far. I think the two cases should have separate Wikipedia articles, which I am willing to develop. But then the Supreme Court will probably issue a joint ruling that covers both, perhaps under yet another combined name. That then would be confusing in its own right. Any thoughts? --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 18:51, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
