    From The Telecom Digest@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 18 13:24:10 2023

    The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear two cases involving public
    officials who deleted comments and blocked users from their
    social-media pages. It will hear both cases during its next term,
    which begins in October 2023. The cases provide an opportunity to
    specify a test for deciding when a public official's use of social
    media amounts to state action — the sort of action that can lead to
    liability for First Amendment violations. In choosing a state-action
    test, the Supreme Court will resolve a lopsided circuit split.
