As social media usage has increased, so has the tension between those who believe these platforms should regulate harmful content and those who advocate for unrestricted free speech. Recent examples include Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's accusation that the Biden administration pressured Facebook to "censor certain content" during the pandemic, the ongoing investigation involving Telegram's CEO and co-founder Pavel Durov related to alleged criminal activities on the platform, and the temporary suspension of X in Brazil for not appointing a legal representative by the required deadline. How do you feel? Is censoring social media an attack on free speech?
