This is a deep, informative series for anyone who’s just coming to the debate over Section 230 and content moderation. Worth a read. — PolitiTweet.org

Human Rights Watch writes to senators that it opposes the EARN IT Act, arguing that the bill to change Section 230 sets up a false choice between "between children’s rights and other fundamental rights”: https://t.co/0DC3ZUdg9y — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook’s decision today further highlights the yawning gap between itself and Twitter, which has struck out on its own into uncharted territory. For Twitter, there is no turning back. The only way out is through. New from me and @sfiegerman: https://t.co/cjv27tz6c9 — PolitiTweet.org

In retrospect, the word “imminent” seems to be doing a lot of work in this testimony. https://t.co/cyzR45abip — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Zuckerberg has a blog post defending Facebook’s decision not to act against Trump’s posts re: Minneapolis. Says he had a “visceral negative reaction” personally, but that he is the "leader of an institution committed to free expression.” https://t.co/TX228Q4x8P — PolitiTweet.org

In that case, the judge wrote that Trump’s “personal” account is often used in a professional capacity "to take actions that can be taken only by the President as President." — PolitiTweet.org

In 2018, a federal judge ruled that Trump can’t block people from following him on Twitter because the space on his feed where he engages with people, and people engage with him, is a public forum. https://t.co/PbSFacpPL3 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump here is seemingly daring Twitter to take action against an official government account. But remember, in the eyes of the law there is no difference — Trump’s personal account *is* a government account https://t.co/ONMa8aa7ZC — PolitiTweet.org

It’s hard to know what to think about this. On the one hand, the FCC always “carefully reviews” every little thing, so it’s noncommittal. On the other hand, the fact Pai is talking approvingly of a “debate,” before any EO text is final, hints he’s more than open to the idea. — PolitiTweet.org

The FCC says it will “carefully review” any ask from the Trump administration for new rules. “This debate is an important one,” said @AjitPaiFCC in a statement. — PolitiTweet.org

I pointed out some of his Democratic colleagues are keen to make changes to 230. Wyden acknowledged the EARN IT Act, which would make 230 protections conditional on guidelines by a new panel led by DOJ and DHS. “This is obviously something I will fight with everything I have." https://t.co/Ei6Pz5nZzD — PolitiTweet.org

Curtailing protections for websites large and small, he said, will be “a gift to bullies, and will lead to pain and less influence for the little guy with the good idea." — PolitiTweet.org

Just got off the phone with @RonWyden, the architect of Section 230. “[Trump] is trying to steal for himself the power of the courts and Congress to rewrite decades of settled law,” Wyden told me. “He decides what’s legal based on what’s in his interest." — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: President Trump has signed an executive order aimed at curtailing the power of social media platforms — an effort legal experts say is fraught with constitutionality questions. — PolitiTweet.org
