Original Note:
Note needed by technicality. While the US House Judiciary Committee did find 'potentially illegal' bias towards Twitter/X, it should not be called illegal until proven in a court of law; the World Federation of Advertisers' actions may be protected under the 1st amendment. https://judiciary.house.gov/media/in-the-news/house-judiciary-committee-report-exposes-shadowy-corporate-coordination-silence https://www.techpolicy.press/the-first-amendment-protects-advertisers-too/
