Sorry I need to jump in without having read every intermediate thread. If this is a duplicate, please just skip it. Not a lawfag

 

QUESTION FOR LAWFAGS=

 

What are some possible cause(s) of action for class action lawsuit against the social media companies?

 

→ Civil Rights action for violation of the 1st Amendment? (free speech)

 

→ Antitrust action for acting a a monopoly in restraint of free trade?

 

→ add RICO … additional damages, easier to prove?

 

→ Plaintiffs' class … Who can prove they experienced actual monetary damages? Conservative websites, YouTube publishers, etc. that lost actual advertising revenue?

 

→ Libel/slander → more difficult to prove reputational damages

 

→ What jurisdiction(s)? Federal courts? Which one(s)?

 

→ We have Q's statements that they acted in concert actually deploying the same algorithm to target plaintiffs for censorship → but need discovery to PROVE this singular algorithm → all we have now is Q's word on it plus circumstantial evidence of a massive, coordinated clampdown on conservative voices

 

Would appreciate lawfags' discussion of all points that seem most salient, in your professional judgment.

 

This may be a HUGE, career-making opportunity for plaintiffs' attorneys.
