Eight attorneys general, led by California’s Rob Bonta, filed a separate lawsuit on similar legal grounds

Thanks goodness. This would have killed competition and local newsrooms across the country

Friends, if you haven't already, it would be a big favour to me if you could enable tags.pub to boost your public tagged posts.

Just search for @_followback in your Mastodon UI. Click the follow button there. (Don't try to follow from the profile page; it doesn't work yet.)

It will follow you back, and when you make a post with a hashtag in it, the server will boost your post from the appropriate hashtag.
