The US Supreme Court will rule if social media platforms should be liable for content posted by users. Would this bring accountability or censorship? 🗓 Mon, 20 February 2023 ⏰ 12h00 EST 🔗 via.maharaj.org/230 With Counsels for Reddit & Wikimedia: @BenL & @JacobLRogers55

The Supreme Court will review Section 230, which shields social media platforms from liability for content they carry. Does this threaten free expression or promise accountability? Join our discussion with @Reddit's @BenL & @Wikimedia's @JacobLRogers55.

Great @techreview piece by @TateRyMo on how Gonzalez v Google could leave Reddit moderators liable. Great quotes by @BNonnecke & @BenL. Our amicus also argued that 230 protects recommendations by users--and that plaintiffs' argument would undermine that. technologyreview.com/2023/02/01/106…


Our team @reddit is growing! We're looking for a contracts manager and a variety of counsel roles: redditinc.com/careers/

NEW: I spoke to Reddit's general counsel @BenL ahead of today's Section 230 hearing about how smaller companies with different content moderation models could become collateral damage in the deeply politicized fight against Big Tech (and Twitter). protocol.com/reddit-section…

Look carefully at what Twitter is saying to justify censoring the Biden story. If applied consistently, it’d mean that some of history’s most consequential journalism — the Pentagon Papers, WikiLeaks’ war logs, Snowden docs, Panama Papers, our Brazil Archive — would be banned.
