Liability or Deniability? Platform Power as Section 230 Turns 30 - U.S. Senate C...
🚨⭐️THEY ARE DOING A SECTION 230 HEARING 3/18/2016 next Wednesday SAVE THE DATE!!!!!!!!⭐️🚨
The article from what I read 👇
Senator Ted Cruz announced a Senate hearing about the future of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, a law that protects online platforms from being held legally responsible for most content posted by users.
The purpose of the hearing is to examine how Section 230 has shaped the internet over the past 30 years, including how it affects regulation of online speech/the limits the First Amendment places on Congress when trying to regulate tech companies.
He said large tech companies have significant power to suppress viewpoints they dislike, but he also said that fully repealing Section 230 might actually lead to more censorship, not less. The hearing will explore possible reforms to keep online platforms open to a wide range of ideas.
