FSC Round Table: Is Big Tech a Threat to Free Speech?

In the wake of the Capitol Hill riot on the 6th of January, American tech companies removed Donald Trump from a number of the most globally popular social media sites. In the following days thousands of other accounts were suspended or banned, with the fallout reaching to a number of mostly right wing New Zealand accounts.

But is this really a threat to free speech? What are the legal or political ramifications? And what can New Zealanders even do about it?

We have brought together a panel of free speech experts to get to the heart of this issue, including Stephen Franks, Liam Hehír, Ani O'Brian, and Damian Grant.
