Florida : The US state of Florida has passed a law imposing heavy fines on social media companies that close the accounts of politicians. The controversial bill, gone by both houses of the Florida Legislature, has been sent to Governor Ron de Saints for signature. Under the law, social networking sites are allowed to suspend politicians' accounts for 14 days, and violators are often fined up to 250,000 dollar each day. The legislation was strongly protested last month by Net Choice, a gaggle promoting freedom of expression on the web. Steve del Bianco, CEO of Net Choice, says the results of the law might be unintended. Although the bill has been gone by both houses of state, it's likely to be challenged in court by technology companies, because it violates US First Amendment rights. Florida Gov. Ron de Saints may be a close ally of former President Donald Trump. And after the riots on Capitol Hill in January this year, Twitter banned Donald Trump and YouTube, Facebook suspended the previous president accounts.
