CISA Information Infrastructure, JIRA Ticketing for Censorship
Amaryllis Kennedy explains how the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) redefined "information" as "infrastructure" at the start of the Biden administration. This legal pivot allegedly allowed the agency to use JIRA ticketing systems to flag social media content for removal, pressuring platforms like Wikipedia and Amazon to comply.
Missouri v. Biden, Supreme Court Social Media Stay
The Supreme Court has temporarily stayed an injunction that limited the Biden administration's communication with social media companies regarding content moderation. The case, Missouri v. Biden, alleges government coercion in removing posts related to COVID-19 and elections. Commentary from the "Pivot" podcast is used to illustrate the divide between those viewing the communication as "working together" and those seeing it as a First Amendment violation.
The release of the "Twitter Files" continues to reveal coordination between the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and major tech platforms like Facebook and Google. The discussion references Whitney Webb's concept of a "limited hangout," suggesting that Elon Musk's disclosures may be designed to provide a controlled outlet for public anger without dismantling the underlying censorship apparatus.
