By almost any measure, the first three months of 2021 were the worst ever for online freedom. Amazon, Twitter, Apple, Google, Facebook, YouTube and others proved to the world that the Big Tech censorship of conservatives is a reality. And they did so in disturbing, authoritarian ways that highlight their unchecked power over information and our political process.

The United States Postal Services has been quietly monitoring Americans’ social media posts, including posts about planned protests. At least some of that specifically targeted “right-leaning accounts.”

Facebook’s fact-checkers are covering for the left’s huge election power grab in H.R. 1. A far left AP fact-checker spent 850 words trying, and failing, to debunk a graphic about the bill. AP News fact-checked a graphic from the Media Research Center on Facebook and claimed it was “missing context.” In reality, the AP fact-checker, far-left reporter Terrence Fraser, just didn’t like the…

Comedian, actor and commentator Russell Brand interviewed University of Toronto Psychology Professor Jordan Peterson and took time to hammer Big Tech companies. Brand, a famous liberal free thinker, torched the idea that Western Civilization can thrive without personal freedom. He suggested that the flaw of modern progressivism was that it failed to observe “something that I can plainly…

Turning Point USA Founder and President Charlie Kirk issued a grim warning that conservatives need to revolutionize their strategy against Big Tech in an age where woke corporations dominate American life. 

Apple has had a history of charging app developers fees for the honor of having an app in the App Store. But several companies have now accused Apple of “anticompetitive” practices in a Senate subcommittee hearing.

The hearing, entitled “Antitrust Applied: Examining Competition in App Stores,” featured testimony from representatives of Spotify, Tile, and Match. The witnesses at the…

The not-so-neighborly social media app Nextdoor revealed a new program that warns users to avoid posting language that it deemed “could be offensive.” Phrases such as “All Lives Matter” will trip Nextdoor’s racism censor, apparently. The social media app for people to communicate within their own neighborhoods about local concerns has taken a decisively far-left turn.

Facebook has once again shown that on its platform only certain viewpoints are allowed in discussions about controversial topics. Facebook announced it would be censoring so-called “misinformation” and “hate speech” regarding the verdict in former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin’s trial. According to Facebook, the move was an attempt to "limit content that could lead to civil unrest…

Far-left groups, including racial activists and socialists, used Facebook to organize 14 protests in nine days over the outcome of the Derek Chauvin trial. The site previously sheltered far-left Antifa-related activist organizations such as “All Out DC” that reportedly spread posters with the personal information of Fox News host Tucker Carlson, in an effort to “Block the Alt-Right.” Smash…

Twitter may soon face a jury over allegations of defamation after it censored guerilla journalism head James O’Keefe. Project Veritas founder O’Keefe has filed a defamation lawsuit against Twitter after the platform suspended his account last week for allegedly violating Twitter’s rules on “platform manipulation and spam.”

YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki accepted an award for freedom of expression after a year of unprecedented censorship of conservatives.

In a win for free speech, Apple finally allowed the free speech-oriented app Parler back into the App Store. Apple sent a letter to Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) that stated the App Store would once again host Parler, according to a tweet from Buck. 

It appears as though one senator is fed up with Big Tech’s power, and has introduced two antitrust bills in the last week to take these massive corporations down. Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) recently introduced the “Bust Up Big Tech Act.” The bill would hold massive tech companies accountable for “seeking to dominate multiple industries simultaneously,” according to an April 19 press…

Twitter is under fire for its double standards. The site featured an article that relied on hacked materials to out police officers who donated to a…
