Getting in the way of government censorship efforts is precisely what the
1st Amendment was intended to do. It's a feature, not a bug. If the
government's attempts at censorship are hitting a brick wall because of
the
1st Amendment, that's a sign everything's working as intended.

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson raised concerns that the 1st
Amendment may stand in the way of government censorship in unique times."You seem to be suggesting that that duty cannot manifest itself in the
government encouraging or even pressuring platforms to take down harmful
information," Jackson said. "So, can you help me? Because I'm really
worried about that because you've got the 1st Amendment operating in an
environment of threatening circumstances, from the government's
perspective, and you're saying that the government can't interact with
the source of those problems."

Aguiñaga said his view was that the government should intervene in
certain situations, but it has to do so by following the 1st Amendment.

"Our position is not that the government can't interact with the
platforms there. They can and they should in certain circumstances
like that, that present such dangerous issues for society and
especially young people," Aguiñaga said in response. "But the way
they do that has to be in compliance with the 1st Amendment and I
think that means they can give them all the true information that
the platform needs and ask to amplify that."

Jackson said a "once-in-a-lifetime pandemic" or other emergencies would
provide grounds for the government to censor social media posts that are

(1) The government has no rights. Only citizens have rights. Government

(2) Whatever power the the government may have with regard to 'harmful

censorship.

The 1st Amendment doesn't say, "...shall make no law abridging the
freedom of speech, except if some government bureaucrat decides what
you're saying is harmful".

(3) This restriction on government power doesn't even go away when
there's an emergency, as the Supreme Court has ruled:

Amendment principles," she said. "I understood our 1st Amendment
jurisprudence to require heightened scrutiny of government restrictions
of speech, but not necessarily a total prohibition when you're talking
about a compelling interest of the government to ensure, for example,
that the public has accurate information in the context of a once-in-
a-lifetime pandemic."

No, Effa, we already resolved that one and, as usual, your point of view

that citizen media-- bloggers, YouTubers, individual citizens commenting
on websites-- all fall under the 1st Amendment's press protections.
