Free speech advocates are calling on a Florida sheriff's office to change its social media policies after users claimed it unconstitutionally blocked them online.
On Wednesday, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), a free speech organization, sent a letter to the Polk County Sheriff's Office (PCSO), urging it to refrain from hiding comments or blocking users based on "constitutionally protected speech." FIRE is also calling on the office to bring its social media policies into compliance with the First Amendment.
