House Judiciary Committee subpoenas Meta’s Threads app over censorship

The Republican-led committee first issued subpoenas in February to Meta related to content moderation and Meta’s engagements with the executive branch to censor speech.

Meta launched Threads earlier in July as a competitor to Twitter, calling it a conversation app.
