ALL OF THIS:  For thirty years we’ve argued that software deserves First Amendment protection because software is speech. But the Constitution gives us another reason: software is a press. The Free Press Clause protects not merely expressive outputs but the individual’s freedom to possess and use technologies for producing and disseminating expression. The founding-era printing press is the paradigmatic example. That is the original understanding of the clause. Software and open-weight generative models are modern instances of the same constitutional category. Regulation directed at their capacity to produce or disseminate expression and an Americans’ right to own and control them directly implicates the Press Clause even when government characterizes the regulated object as a machine rather than speech.

MAKE THE LEFT PLAY BY ITS OWN RULES: Karol Markowicz: Macklemore Is No Free-Speech Martyr: Jewish artists were being canceled long before the controversy over the rapper’s anti-Israel rant.

The scale of the backlash to his concert comments was surprising. Concerts have long been a breeding ground for a self-important musician to deliver his thoughts on the issues of the day. It was boring. It was tedious. It was expected.

So when artist Pink shared a long condemning message pointing out that “Jewish fans bought tickets to see Ed Sheeran sing last night in NJ, not to be ambushed by Macklemore’s anti-Israel propaganda,” it felt new. When Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, said the politicized performance wouldn’t be welcome at his Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts, one of Mr. Sheeran’s tour stops, it wasn’t the same old hand-wringing with no action. Few expected that Macklemore would end up canceled from the remaining tour dates. That’s not normally what happens to activists on the left. . . .

It turns out it works both ways. The uproar from people at the Ed Sheeran show, including from non-Jews, put Macklemore’s spectacle front and center. It had been the left’s game and Macklemore was the first time they had prominently lost at it.

The complaints now are about “free speech.” But no one cared about that when Jewish singers, comedians, artists and authors had their speech shut down. The publishing world, in particular, has gotten so impossible for Jewish authors that new Jewish imprints have become necessary for Jewish authors to get published at all.

It isn’t free speech the left is now demanding for Macklemore. It’s free speech for its side only. That’s something our culture can no longer abide.

Sauce for the goose.
