I think compelled speech is as legal as prohibited speech. Great that Congress develops a spine in an issue they're legally incapable of affecting.

    Congress is absolutely capable of affecting this. For example they could force Apple to withdraw from China (they way they have done with Nvidia).

    (I'm not saying they will, but they definitely could)
