The Right's (and Left's) Insane Internet Content Power Grab
(repost with new introduction)
The post below was originally published on 10 August 2019. In light of
recent events, particularly the storming of the United States Capital
by a violent mob -- resulting in five deaths -- and subsequent actions
by major social media firms relating to the exiting President Donald
Trump (actions that I do endorse under these extraordinary
circumstances), I feel that the original post is again especially
relevant. While the threats of moves by the Trump administration
against CDA Section 230 are now moot, it is clear that 230 will be a
central focus of congress going forward, and it's crucial that we all
understand the risks of tampering with this key legislation that is
foundational to the availability of responsible speech and content on
the Internet. --Lauren--
