In June and July of 2021, the Federal Communications Bar Association (FCBA) presented a series of three events to contribute to the ever-widening policy debate on regulating online platforms. As part of the third session in the series, DWT partner Dan Waggoner co-moderated panel of industry experts and discussed how current approaches to the issues surrounding content moderation may evolve as technology advances and the needs of governments, businesses, and consumers change.

Session Topics:

  • What are the current content moderation practices in social media?
  • How does the Section 230 case law affect these practices?
  • Can misinformation/disinformation on social media be prevented?
  • Can/should algorithms be regulated or at least better understood, and how could this be done?
  • Are private sector solutions (e.g., oversight boards, greater competition) helping to ameliorate problems of misinformation/disinformation on social media?
  • Do Fairness Doctrine-like principles have a role in social media?
  • Platforms v. Publishers: What are the implications of the Australian experience with Facebook?
  • What should be the public interest policymaking priorities for content moderation?
