US Senators, including Bernie Sanders, send letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, YouTube’s Neal Mohan on ‘talks with Trump’ about censorship lawsuit: ‘We are concerned about…’
A group of senators has raised concerns that Google may be negotiating a settlement in a censorship lawsuit with former President Donald Trump in exchange for favourable treatment from his administration. For this, the group of Democratic senators, including Elizabeth Warren and independent Senator Bernie Sanders, has written a letter sent to Google CEO Sundar Pichai and YouTube CEO Neal Mohan, questioning whether discussions with Trump’s legal team have included such a possibility.
The lawsuit stems from Trump’s claims of unlawful censorship after his accounts were suspended from social media platforms following the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.
