The law mandates social media companies disclose their hate speech moderation practices, which X claims infringes on free speech rights and imposes burdensome reporting requirements. Musk's legal team argues that the act compels non-commercial speech and threatens businesses with significant penalties for non-compliance. Authors of the bill maintain that the law enhances transparency and accountability in combating harmful online content, refuting claims of free speech infringement.
