Free speech advocates, a Republican senator, and social media's premier platform have rallied to action after the Biden administration's alarming vow last week to clamp down on alleged misinformation online, a move that experts believe may be unconstitutional and certainly reeks of hypocrisy.

She also suggested that social media companies work together to ban anyone who spreads so-called misinformation from all platforms.
