    This may be the one time I side with X. This seems like a massive first amendment right violation. Why did California choose to start now and not years ago when this became a problem. What constitutes a social media company? How will the government decide to regulate what is “controversial”. This law seems strange with a lot of gaping holes.

      I guess it’s defined in the law. Did you read it ?
