Topic: Anonymous Speech

Nikki Haley's proposal to end online anonymity is criticized as dangerous for whistleblowers and professionals who fear employer repercussions for their views.

These constitutional protections are currently being challenged by the collusion between Big Tech and government agencies seeking to de-anonymize political dissidents.
