Years ago the FEC’s then top litigator, only partially joking, said to me, “my goal is to make sure that anyone who would want to sue the FEC will not have standing to sue the FEC.” Looks like the federal government has finally pulled that off with Murthy v. Missouri.

We made this point in a recent op-ed about CA's social media verification bill. Think about how dangerous it is for anonymous political activists, especially those speaking out against foreign governments who don't play by our rules, to be doxxed.

This is the part I like least. If govt pressure caused platforms to change their speech rules, which led platforms to suppress their speech... then plaintiffs still have no standing. Because the pressure, having succeeded, is over now and no longer redressable.
