Original Note:
The First Amendment only prevents government restrictions on speech. It does not prevent restrictions on speech imposed by private individuals or businesses. Social media can regulate or restrict speech hosted on their platforms because they are private entities. https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution-conan/amendment-1/content-based-regulation https://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/censorship
