Obama faces backlash after calling for 'regulatory constraints' on social media in viral video

Former US President Barack Obama faced backlash after a viral video showed him calling for 'regulatory constraints' on social media, sparking criticism from some who see it as an attempt to curb free speech. Critics argued that Obama's comments could lead to censorship and undermine the open exchange of ideas online. The former president's office later clarified that his remarks were intended to promote responsible regulation of tech companies, not limit freedom of expression. However, many still felt uneasy with the notion of government intervention in regulating social media platforms.
