Censored, Compensated, and Controversial

Book Description

This book dives into the financial settlement between Meta and Donald Trump, exploring the complex issue of deplatforming and its consequences. It looks at how social media giants, like Meta, control online discourse by suspending accounts and whether they should be held accountable for the impact these actions have on individuals.

It questions if individuals should be compensated for having their accounts removed, urging a reevaluation of the power social media companies hold in moderating content. The book also raises important concerns about how these companies balance freedom of speech with their own policies.

Through an analysis of Trump's deplatforming and the legal battles that followed, this book reflects on the broader implications for digital censorship and corporate responsibility. It challenges readers to think about the influence of Big Tech and its role in shaping modern democracy.
