Censorship on social media has been a contentious subject in American politics, with many claiming that the Silicon Valley tech companies are unfairly biased in their activity. This may be true, but the spread of misinformation online is becoming more and more of an issue. Conspiracy theories such as QAnon have been spreading like wildfire in the past few years, and many believe candidates are using social media to whip up similar false information to their advantage.
