Ok, I am on vacation now, I can go digging perhaps? The Decency Act sounded like it was an attack on the first amendment made by hypocritical religious prudes who sound like they came straight out of the Dark Ages, but in reality was a legal tool to protect corporate boards of directors from being sued by the public for censoring them. Remember, at least 98% of politicians are attorneys, and with nothing to stop them, they can call a pig an octopus and vise versa. This is where an act back in the 90's that sounded like something for the public's benefit, but was merely a way of setting up an income base for a new, ruling, class. The following is a claim by the NY Times that your once-vaunted ACLU is now ok with censorship, with the 1st amendment being merely one, and the least of 15 new principles. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/06/us/aclu-free-speech.htmlAh, attorneys! And so it flows. For a small L libertarian, this might give you some pause to consider, but what I do for a living is not salesmanship, so do as you see fit. Often Law Fare as it is now called, is a merely a tool of the rich of either of the prime ideologies, and as your fellow Texan Bob Smith once spake, regarding poker, "I believe in the golden rule, he who has the gold makes the rules." Be careful of what you wish for oligarchy-wise John, You make not like the result.

Then let's have three big cheers for oligarch money! If they really did that then they must be on the side of the enlightenment, unlike that of Trump and his fascist stooges. The decency act was an attack on the first amendment made by hypocritical religious prudes who seem to have come straight out of the dark ages, it is the duty of any honorable person to do all that they can to oppose that sort of totalitarianism. This law was been re-interpreted to enable billionaire media dogs to rule their platforms irrespective of the 1st amendment.

Where are the specifics? I looked them up as you suggested and I was still unable to find a single example of corporate censorship. Not one. And obviously you couldn't find one either or you'd have mentioned it. Corporate censorship is a myth, like Bigfoot, or a Republican in office who is not a Trump supporter, or a Trump supporter that is honorable.
