A top Twitter executive has a stern warning for governments considering new ways to rein in disinformation and hateful speech online: Such rules threaten to cleave the global internet at the expense of democracy.
Regulation could also stifle the creation of new start-ups and preempt competition, he warned, locking in the dominance of the existing tech companies that many politicians already say are too powerful — and should be broken up for the sake of promoting competition. In Washington, Republicans have demanded that the social platforms refrain from what they see, citing minimal evidence, as the sites' tendencies to discriminate against conservative voices. Sen. Josh Hawley, a Republican from Missouri, has proposed legislation that would require companies like Twitter and Facebook to be certified as "politically neutral" before they can enjoy decades-old limits on their liability for the content users post to them.
“I would argue that these tech companies should form a consortium to come up with some basic guidelines. They should have a review of the material that tags information that has excessive hate speech or that is targeting minorities. And then they need to have human review once the initial tag has been placed to see whether it's a news item or whether it's something that isn't a news item. And if it's not a news item and it's hateful speech they should remove it,” he said.
Take it a step further they help the 45th run the four estates of nation building...the El of this is the all male patriarchal god-heads they have committed many atrocities against Humanity without remorse or sorrow...hard to phantom but they don't seem to understand it's an end.
