The triggering event was Trump's spat with Twitter, which started adding fact-checks to Trump's tweets. Trump argued that by adding fact-checks and deleting messages, social media platforms were acting as editors and therefore shouldn't be shielded by Section 230, the key piece of legislation that has protected internet service companies from liability for the content on their platforms.
The FCC, which is directed by five appointed commissioners and regulates communications by radio, television, satellite, wire, and cable, has typically had little to do with the internet beyond infrastructure. "Social media can be frustrating. But an Executive Order that would turn the FCC into the President's speech police is not the answer," wrote Democrat FCC commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel in a statement shared with Business Insider ahead of the order's signing.that he hadn't seen the EO, but that, "As a conservative, I'm troubled voices are stifled by liberal tech leaders. At same time, I'm extremely dedicated to First Amendment which governs much here.
There's no guarantee that the FTC or FCC will actually do what Trump is asking, and as legal experts have pointed out, the FCC doesn't have the authority to enforce anything itself. "The FCC has no jurisdiction here.
CEOTechnician Something had to be done about FB, Youtube, Twitter et al censoring, banning conservatives.
All of them started illegally. They should be more legal, before being a police looking at them. They are in privacy and intellectual property violations, illegal use and unjust enrichment for their beginning. They should not even exist.
realDonaldTrump IS Adolf Hitler
Isn’t the EO intended to force social media monopolies back to the original intent of being digital town square hosting all legal content instead of a publisher moderating content?
That’s just plain dumb. There is currently no legislation to criminalize hate speech and misinformation for them to enforce.
Cool does that mean we see less of trumps bullshit
