Hi there,
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey recently took questions from Congress on who's responsible for the content that gets shared on their platforms.
Both CEOs said they should continue to be shielded by a law called Section 230 which, according to POLITICO, "protects them and other online companies from lawsuits over the user content they host or remove."
President-elect Biden has said he would revoke this protection for Big Tech, which would then make companies like Twitter and Facebook accountable for hosting false information, like the kind that propelled Trump to victory in 2016.
But even though studies have shown conservatives share the most "fake news" online, many GOP senators are convinced Big Tech is actually too friendly to progressives. With crucial runoffs in Georgia approaching -- vital elections that will decide which party controls Congress -- we're reaching out to our Democratic supporters to see if they think Big Tech companies should have a shorter leash. Tell us what you think:
Do you want Big Tech regulated?
