In the United States, corporations have 1st amendment protections. The Supreme Court codified this in CITIZENS UNITED v. FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION (https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/08-205.html)

"... holding that corporations have a First Amendment right to free speech because they are "associations of citizens" and hold the collected rights of the individual citizens who constitute them." [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_personhood#:~:text=T....]
