Debate reignites over China and Russia bans on US social networks

Original: China and Russia were never wrong to ban US social networks. It wasn’t censorship, it was freedom.

A claim circulating widely argues that China and Russia were justified in banning American social media platforms, framing the bans as protecting sovereignty and freedom rather than censorship. The assertion is drawing significant attention and debate, with users weighing in on whether restricting US platforms is a legitimate defense against foreign influence or a restriction of free expression.

Why now: Ongoing tensions over social media regulation, foreign influence and platform bans have made claims defending such restrictions resonate with audiences.
