California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed AB 2624, a controversial bill critics have dubbed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act,” igniting a fierce political battle ahead of the midterms. Supporters say the measure protects vulnerable individuals from harassment and doxxing, while opponents, including MAGA-aligned activists and Republicans, argue it could chill citizen journalism and free speech. The law’s passage has intensified an already heated clash between Newsom and Donald Trump’s political allies.
