Part 10/12:

The surveillance and policing of speech—whether in comedy, journalism, or entertainment—pose profound questions about the limits of free expression in a society increasingly divided along political lines.
One notable point was the upcoming congressional hearing involving the CEO of Twitch, illustrating regulatory attention on social platforms where many controversial figures operate. While the CEO is technically invited, not subpoenaed, this further underscores the growing governmental influence over online content and speech.
