State Action and the First Amendment on Social Media
This chapter explores the concept of state action in relation to government officials blocking individuals on private social media platforms and discusses when an individual's social media account held by a government office holder constitutes state action. It also examines the potential implications of allowing local officials to block constituents on social media and raises concerns about online harassment and its impact on individuals serving in public office.
