n a new blog post, Berry explains how we got here and why the Supreme Court should not take the same deferential approach that the DC Circuit Court of Appeals took in this case less than two weeks ago.
In June, Cato filed an amicus brief in TikTok v. Garland, addressing two justifications for the law that were repeatedly invoked by lawmakers: that TikTok is a platform for “propaganda” and that it is a platform for “misinformation” and “disinformation.” The brief explains that neither of these arguments can justify the law, because there is no First Amendment exception for either “propaganda” or false speech.
