Judge dismisses X suit over NY hate law
x/elon-musk
— 6d
US District Judge John Cronan dismissed Elon Musk's X lawsuit seeking to strike down New York's Stop Hiding Hate Act, holding that requiring disclosure of content-moderation practices is a legitimate, factual obligation and not a First Amendment violation. The law, signed by Governor Hochul in December 2024 and backed by NY Attorney General Letitia James, could impose civil fines up to $15,000 per day for noncompliance, and X has argued it would curb platform speech.
