First Amendment and Free Speech Online



"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."





That's it. That's all the United States Constitution's First Amendment actually says.

There's a lot in just those few sentences, and it's crucial to know when and how it applies to common situations. Especially given the widespread use of Social Media.
