Section 230 defines internet culture as we know it: It has created space for social movements like #MeToo and #BLM; enabled platforms to host the speech of activists and organizers; and allowed users and content creators on sites like Instagram, TikTok, and Twitch to flourish. — PolitiTweet.org

Google v. Gonzalez is the first case to consider the scope of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which prevents websites — like Google, Twitter, or WhatsApp — from being held liable for content their users post. — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: We just filed an amicus brief in Google v. Gonzalez, urging the Supreme Court to protect our right to speak freely on online platforms. Online speech is an essential public good — and overbroad content moderation disproportionately harms disadvantaged communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Arizona has been unlawfully surveilling personal money transfer records of people across the country — disproportionately affecting poor people, immigrants, and communities of color. This illegal program must be shut down. https://t.co/iUaWIACygF — PolitiTweet.org

States receiving funds from the American Rescue Plan Act are prohibited from using that money for jail and prison construction, though many states are planning to anyway. Alabama, for example, allocated over 400 MILLION dollars of its relief funding toward prison construction. — PolitiTweet.org

Both abortion and gender-affirming care give us the freedom to determine our own paths in life. Politicians who want to ban these freedoms want to write your story for you. We won’t let that happen. https://t.co/zU7xzgk0cX — PolitiTweet.org
