Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸 Thank you to all the American heroes that protect and defend us. We are grateful for your service and sacrifice!

Congratulations are in order! NetChoice member Pindrop has been named one of TIME Magazine's 10 Most Influential Software Companies of 2026. 👏 Their cutting-edge deepfake detection is a game-changer, securing the AI landscape and protecting digital integrity. 💪

"When the government targets what you say based on the viewpoint it expresses, the First Amendment demands rigorous judicial scrutiny." Censorship by another name is still censorship. Chris Marchese & @paultaske.bsky.social examine Chiles v. Salazar: netchoice.org/scotus-to-co...

NetChoice is on the court this March Madness season blocking constitutional fouls. 🏀 From fighting Chicago’s new tax to stopping digital ID mandates, we're benching censorship to keep the internet free.

The White House’s new AI framework is a positive step toward securing America's dominance. A light-touch regulatory approach, not a confusing patchwork of rules, is what will enable the next great era of innovation and prosperity.

🚨🚨 1 BILLION identity records exposed in ID verification data leak, INCLUDING +203 MILLION American records. Governments forcing ID verification to access lawful speech creates data honeypots, vulnerabilities cybersecurity experts have repeatedly warned against. The threat is NOT hypothetical.

Happy National Freedom of Information Day! 🇺🇸 Today, we are proud to celebrate the unparalleled protections Americans have to access information freely. NetChoice fights every day to protect and defend this freedom online. 💪

NetChoice Sues Chicago to Stop Discriminatory Rule Taxing Speech, One Follower at a Time “The government cannot single out publishers for disfavored tax treatment. But that is exactly what Chicago’s social media tax does," @paultaske.bsky.social. Learn more here: netchoice.org/wp-content/u...

Today, NetChoice was in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit to halt unconstitutional digital ID mandates in Georgia & Florida. "Age-verification laws undermine the safety and security of everyone, including the very minors government officials want to protect" @paultaske.bsky.social.

NetChoice’s Digital Safety Shield for America provides a policy plan for lawmakers on both the state and federal level. Working together, we can stop digital criminals, protect kids, and empower parents online while upholding the rights of Americans.

A "Myth vs. Fact" document from House Energy & Commerce attempts to downplay the severe privacy, security, and constitutional risks associated with mandatory, sweeping age verification and digital ID. Here is a step-by-step rebuttal from NetChoice to each of their claims. buff.ly/eOr7xTy

"Like many bills that sound good on the surface, the current version of the App Store Accountability Act carries serious unintended consequences." Read more by the Washington Reporter: buff.ly/5CpyYbO

On Friday, NetChoice obtained our latest legal victory, halting the enforcement of Virginia's unconstitutional attempt to restrict how its citizens access lawful speech online. We stand firm in ensuring the internet remains safe and free from government overreach. buff.ly/s1fHwN0

South Carolina’s new Speech Code is a disaster for the First Amendment. 🚫 It forces digital services to either act as government censors or implement invasive age verification, putting South Carolinians at risk. NetChoice sued to stop it.

Retailers are going for gold with their ads during the Winter Olympics, with everything from limited editions to official partnerships, giveaways, and more. Krista Chavez writes how brands are capitalizing on the opportunity to reach loyal fans and new audiences at Milano-Cortina: buff.ly/5iVkcQL

Censorship by lawsuit threatens free speech on the internet. Section 230 is the firewall, writes NetChoice's Robert Winterton. buff.ly/OCZEfHc

We must not import foreign censorship rules to America. Read more at @politico.com's Digital Future Daily on why Online Speech Codes being passed in the U.S. mirror censorship laws in the UK and EU by @aarontmak.bsky.social, featuring @paultaske.bsky.social. 👉️ buff.ly/H2UFkEI

In today’s political climate, Section 230's protection serves an even more vital function: to prevent liability from being turned into a tool of indirect government control over lawful speech and political discourse. buff.ly/OCZEfHc

Today, we celebrate the dreamers and doers on National Inventors Day. 💡 America’s tech leadership is built on the freedom to innovate. Let’s keep protecting free enterprise and free expression so our next generation of innovators can continue to change the world. 🇺🇸

🚨 🏛️ Last night, NetChoice filed a lawsuit to stop censorship, challenging South Carolina’s new Speech Code. "South Carolina’s speech code must contend with the First Amendment, and in that matchup, the First Amendment will win every time," said @paultaske.bsky.social.

Europe’s aggressive digital regulations are being wielded as bludgeons against American enterprise and free speech. Congress must follow House Judiciary's leadership and take action now to protect our rights and economy from this foreign interference. buff.ly/CnzaSUz

TODAY, the 6th Circuit will hear arguments in NetChoice’s cases against Ohio and Tennessee's social media age verification laws, which violate the online speech rights, privacy and security, and parental rights of their citizens. @paultaske.bsky.social

Today, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit will hear Mississippi’s appeal of NetChoice’s preliminary injunction against its censorious I.D.-for Speech. @paultaske.bsky.social

It’s time for Congress to pass a unified federal standard that protects all Americans, regardless of their zip code. We need an American standard that reflects American values: protecting privacy while fostering the free enterprise that makes our tech the envy of the world.

Another Data Privacy Week is here, but one thing remains frustratingly static: the absence of a unified, nationwide data privacy standard in the United States. It's is time for a federal framework that protects all Americans and respects the positive uses of data.

Happy Data Privacy Week! In NetChoice’s Digital Safety Shield, we advocate for a federal data privacy framework to protect the data of ALL Americans and families. Americans’ privacy rights shouldn’t depend on their zip code.

American innovation thrives under principles of free enterprise and competition based on merit. AICOA abandons that for an approach that's already proving costly and counterproductive in Europe. We must take a different path, not follow Europe off a cliff.

NRF 2026 proved the "retail apocalypse" was a myth as brick-and-mortar is making a huge comeback. “This vibrant resurgence of the store proves that the retail market is more competitive and dynamic today than at any point in history.”

CES 2026 showed that the race for the future is officially underway. Companies are continually working to innovate and compete to deliver for consumers. We must ensure regulatory barriers don’t stall the American innovative spirit.

Happy 17th Birthday, Waymo! 🥳 The company has secured key innovative advancements for the America in autonomous vehicles, showing how visionaries deploying this new technology can improve safety, mobility and time management for people nationwide. 🚗 💡

Today, NetChoice was in the 9th Circuit to defend free expression from California's online speech code. Courts have consistently rejected the law, recognizing it for what it is: state-mandated censorship. Read more here: buff.ly/aCNNUix @paultaske.bsky.social

As @dougducey & @SecGranholm recently wrote, "Governors across America can show that economic growth, grid innovation, and affordability aren’t competing priorities—they’re mutually reinforcing goals.” Read their piece at @newsweek: buff.ly/aj0DLFT

Data centers can help increase affordability in America! Research is finding that data centers help LOWER electricity bills by absorbing fixed costs. Data via Lawrence Berkeley National Labs study: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

2025 was a banner year for NetChoice. We secured four permanent injunctions across different issue areas, striking down age verification laws, blocking government censorship of political speech, and protecting parental authority from government control. 🇺🇸 🏛️

Yesterday, NetChoice won a permanent block of Louisiana's age verification law. The Court ruled that the law, which conditioned Louisianans’ ability to access protected speech online on their willingness to hand over sensitive government ID, violates the First Amendment. buff.ly/MtZNKCU

"Australia’s ban is a mistake. It sacrifices liberty for a false sense of security, replaces parental oversight with government control, and ultimately leaves minors less prepared and makes everyone less safe in digital spaces." —@paultaske.bsky.social

In areas where data centers have been built up the most, they are actually pushing prices down for residential ratepayers. Data centers are helping to keep energy costs low for local residents in the communities they serve. buff.ly/850wODw

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃

Don't miss NetChoice President & CEO Steve DelBianco on Kevin D. Williamson's How the World Works podcast discussing his background, tech's impact on society, and American entrepreneurship in the digital age. Tune in here:

A new Lawrence Berkeley National Labs study examines key drivers of electricity rates in America today, including: -Extreme weather disasters; -Aging grid infrastructure; and -State regulators pushing utilities to add solar & wind power while retiring natural gas, coal and nuclear power plants.

The tragic demise of iRobot, a flagship American tech company, shows how misguided EU antitrust efforts cost hundreds of American jobs and handed the robotics market over to China. The U.S. must stand up for American innovators, at home and abroad. buff.ly/nj8VUow

Happy Free Speech Week! Reminder: the First Amendment endures with innovation, applying online as it does offline. Its core principles don't vary with new technologies. 💪 🏛️ 🇺🇸

The First Amendment protects free speech, free expression, and free thought, including in online spaces. This Free Speech Week, we're celebrating this fundamental cornerstone of American liberty 🇺🇸

Happy Free Speech Week! 🇺🇸 🎙️ Our right to free expression is worth protecting in the digital age, and NetChoice fights every day to ensure it is upheld online.

The federal government cannot be resilient to cyber threats if it doesn’t even know what software it’s running or if it remains bound to a small number of suppliers. This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, breaking vendor lock and restoring competitive discipline must be an imperative. buff.ly/K9hc6B9

TODAY: NetChoice is in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, asking the Court to halt a Colorado censorship law designed to discourage citizens from using online services by mandating that websites display state-approved “warning” messages.

BIG WIN for free speech 📣🇺🇸 Today, a court permanently blocked the censorship provision of Maryland's digital ad tax in NetChoice's case w/@USChamber @ccianet. Complaining about taxes is a “grand American political tradition,” and we're proud to defend your right to do so.

Yesterday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law two censorship bills, AB 56 and AB 1034. 🧵

The SAMOSA Act is a bipartisan, common-sense measure that would improve US cybersecurity and competitiveness in government IT procurement. A recent NetChoice report showed that increasing competition could save +$3 billion annually. buff.ly/7IguABu @fedscoop.bsky.social @mattbracken.bsky.social

AI is already helping to improve global health. Researchers are using generative AI to design new antibiotics that successfully target drug-resistant bacteria, potentially saving millions of lives. We must keep the innovation ecosystem strong.
