Note the administrations’s definition states true facts can be classified as misinformation and then censored but as computer scientists we need to recognize that facts, truth and honesty are the basic tenets of our discipline and are codified/corroborated in the ACM Code of Ethics & Professional Conduct

Copied below is the Constitution’s 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.

History:

Madison’s version of the speech and press clauses, introduced in the House of Representatives on June 8, 1789, provided: The people shall not be deprived or abridged of their right to speak, to write, or to publish their sentiments; and the freedom of the press, as one of the great bulwarks of liberty, shall be inviolable.¹ The special committee rewrote the language to some extent, adding other provisions from Madison’s draft, to make it read: The freedom of speech and of the press, and the right of the people peaceably to assemble and consult for their common good, and to apply to the government for redress of grievances, shall not be infringed.² In this form it went to the Senate, which rewrote it to read: That Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and consult for their common good, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.³ Subsequently, the religion clauses and these clauses were combined by the Senate.⁴ The final language was agreed upon in conference.
