Recently there has been a national debate in the U.S. about tech companies violating "Free Of Speech" of their users through censorship, It's a violation of our first amendment rights. Reading the first amendment strictly through a textualist lens I can understand that Congress cannot limit our speech, but it does not say anything about companies limiting it, or even the Executive branch limiting our freedom of expression through an executive order.
First Amendment:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Is our modern day understanding of freedom of speech strictly based off precedent from court cases?
