This week, NetChoice launched a new lawsuit with Computer & Communications Industry Association (CCIA) in Texas to stop HB 18, defend constitutional rights, protect parental rights, and keep kids—and all Texans—safe online. HB 18 violates Texans’ fundamental rights, creates a disaster for their online privacy and security, and replaces parents with government bureaucrats. “The law restricts all Texans’ ability to access and engage in protected speech online by requiring them to hand over their sensitive, personal data first. This is not only unconstitutional, it’s bad policy, and NetChoice is joining CCIA again on a new lawsuit in Texas to stop it,” said Chris Marchese, Director of the NetChoice Litigation Center. “The law also puts all Texans—especially children—at a seriously increased risk for exploitation and abuse for cyberattacks from hackers and criminals. Parents and guardians—not politicians—should be in charge of their families.” Learn more about CCIA & NetChoice v. Paxton here: https://buff.ly/3y9qFoo

Our principles have inspired a thriving, competitive U.S. tech economy as our innovators use their creativity and entrepreneurial spirit to invent and bring new products to market. The estimated direct impact of the U.S. tech sector is over $2 trillion, nearly 10 million Americans have jobs as tech professionals (with more being added every year), and there are more than 600,000 tech businesses in the U.S. America’s founding principles—and the freedoms and innovations they inspire—are worth defending.

Today, the Supreme Court released its decision in Murthy v. Missouri, a case reviewing government interactions with social media platforms on content moderation. Moving forward, NetChoice encourages government officials to respect online services’ First Amendment right to moderate content on their websites and urges Congress to pass legislation, like the Protecting Speech from Government Interference Act. Protecting free speech in America shouldn’t be a partisan issue.

“This is an assault on free speech and the open internet by the State of New York,” said Carl Szabo, NetChoice Vice President & General Counsel. “New York has created a way for the government to track what sites people visit and their online activity by forcing websites to censor all content unless visitors provide an ID to verify their age.” NetChoice Condemns New York's New Unconstitutional Internet Censorship Law:

On Friday, NetChoice launched a new lawsuit against Mississippi's HB 1126. By forcing websites to identify users, every digital service in Mississippi would need to collect more data & information from users, including children, if HB 1126 goes into effect. "While violating the First Amendment, this also jeopardizes the security of all Mississippians, especially minors, by requiring them to surrender sensitive, personal information and creates a new target for hackers and other criminals to exploit,” said Chris Marchese, NetChoice Litigation Center Director, in a statement.

NetChoice is suing the state of Georgia today to halt Act 564, a law passed that penalizes marketplaces, disregards federal law and imposes burdens on lawful business and speech while completely failing to address the problem at hand—organized retail crime. It neither provides law enforcement nor marketplaces with resources to detect or prevent retail crime, nor does it give them the necessary resources to put retail thieves in jail. If this law goes into effect, Act 564 will hurt online marketplaces, disproportionately impacting Georgia businesses and putting them at a competitive disadvantage with the rest of the nation, while failing to curb the real problem at hand: organized retail crime.
