7:08Now PlayingDuring his administration, Trump wanted to get rid of Section 230, but now we’re hearing from the general consensus that we want to keep Section 230?
Section 230 states that social media companies cannot be held liable for what happens on their platforms. But can it be reformed without infringing on free speech?
We have to know, and so we brought in two of our friends, political strategist Ajay Bruno and Executive Director of Build The Wave Nate Lerner, to join host David Grasso for this segment of Millennial Minute.
Bruno says that the idea of Section 230 giving social media platforms the clearance to remove hate speech/violence/neo-fascism isn’t the most solid argument, as these social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter can define hate speech however they want. And while he thinks it shouldn’t be removed completely, there has to be some reform.
Lerner states how while it is hard to regulate the internet, you do sign an agreement when you join these social media sites, and Trump wasn’t removed from Twitter for being a Republican, but for inciting violence.
What could this mean for the future, and for the incoming Biden administration? Let us know what you think in the comments!
