Repealing Section 230 is a mistake at a time where we just can't afford to make one. The Trump administration is corrupt and vindictive and will use the removal of 230 as a catalyst to bully online communities and platforms, small and large, to cater to their whims.

I have no idea why Sen. Whitehouse cannot see this. That even if you think there are issues with 230, NOW IS NOT THE TIME.

🥴 Ah, the classic tale of a U.S. lawyer valiantly defending a bastion of internet chaos (4chan) against the UK's valiant attempt to block things with the precision of a drunk darts player. Spoiler alert: IP blocking is about as effective as a sieve in a water balloon fight. 🙃

I always put my #syllabi freely online, and as term gets underway you can find my half-year module in Internet Law and Policy at UCL Laws here (almost all #OpenAccess) here. It's usually 20 weeks not 10 weeks but I have an eagerly awaited sabbatical in Term 2. Please share yours if you have one! https://www.homepages.ucl.ac.uk/~ucqnmve/syllabi/ilp_half.html #syllabus #internetLaw

#ElonMusk and #EU regulators are in a dispute over the #Twitter’s plan to use more volunteers and #ArtificialIntelligence to help moderate the #SocialMedia platform, as the company responds to strict new rules designed to police #OnlineContent.

According to people familiar with the matter, the billionaire has been told to hire more human #moderators and #FactCheckers to review posts. https://arstechnica.com/?p=1922515 #InternetLaw #EuropeanUnion via @arstechnica

Child protection online:

Rishi Sunak, UK’s prime minister, has a big Tory rebellion on his hands, re the new internet safety law currently going through parliament.

“ Under the rebels' proposals, senior managers at tech firms could face up to two years in jail if they breach new duties to keep children safe online. The provision would not apply to search engines.

“These duties include taking "proportionate measures" to stop children seeing harmful material, including through measures such as age verification, taking content down, and parental controls.”
