Abstract
The article critiques the increasing reliance on the First Amendment to structure telecommunications policy, arguing that this trend undermines the ability of governments to create a telecommunications system that promotes diverse speech and public debate. The author contends that the First Amendment is being misapplied to favor corporate interests over individual speakers, leading to a "plastic freedom" that prioritizes industry power over democratic values.
