Techdirt Podcast Episode 393: The Importance Of Section 230 For Online Communities

Tags: apple tech
DATE POSTED:June 4, 2024

At the latest committee hearing about its repeal bill, Congress finally deigned to bring in one witness who spoke in defense of Section 230. Engine Executive Director Kate Tummarello got a little bit of time to explain how Section 230 isn’t about protecting big tech, it’s about protecting the hosts and users of all kinds of extremely important and valuable online communities. But that little bit of time was far from enough, so this week Kate joins us on the podcast to say some more things that Congress really, really needs to listen to.
