California lawmakers say the new law aims to make social media more transparent, but X, formerly known as Twitter, alleges it violates the 1st Amendment.

Content moderation, the practice of reviewing users’ posts and deleting those that violate standards, has been a political issue. While Democrats say social media platforms haven’t done enough to moderate content, allowing harmful messages to spread, Republicans have accused these companies of censoring speech.

The law, he said, doesn’t require companies to have content moderation policies and is purely about transparency.“I’m very hopeful and optimistic that this lawsuit is not going to succeed and that the courts are ultimately going to find this law is constitutional,” he said. “We put a lot of thought into that.”
