“In a week where many in Washington pressured social media sites to more closely moderate their platforms, we are seeing efforts from the White House to make content moderation harder.”said Carl Szabo, Vice President and General Counsel for NetChoice.
“If President Trump is concerned about mistreatment of conservatives by social media platforms the White House should continue a productive dialogue with the tech industry — not empower government agencies to regulate online speech.”
“Diminishing platforms’ ability to remove offensive content empowers the spread of extremist political speech.”
