Getting ready to kick off the Future of Children's Online Privacy panel at #SOTN2023
Jane Horvath suggests that more states need to implement kids privacy leg.

Privacy for all is an important goal. But state-by-state solutions will only make the current convoluted patchwork problem worse.

If anything, we should be focused on getting to Yes on federal privacy.
Key point from Jamie Susskind -- conversations regarding online harm to kids clouds the federal privacy discourse making it impossible to pass legislation. Those conversations are important but separate.

#Section230 panel about to begin #SOTN2023
I'm sitting next to @AriCohn who unsurprisingly is even funnier in person
.@ma_franks kicks it off with two points:

1. the 230 (c)(1) immunity overwrites the (c)(2) good faith moderation provision;

2. 230 operates like a "super immunity" reaching beyond publication torts (i.e. defamation).

#SOTN #Section230 panel opens with @ma_franks claiming the law protects only against liability for defamation and related claims supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/21/2…

If that were all 230 did, why did Congress spell out things didn't 230 affect completely unrelated to defamation and the like?
@ma_franks .@MA_Franks relies entirely on the "Good Samaritan" heading for 230(c) to argue that (c)(1) must require good faith efforts to block content. If Congress had intended to make (c)(1) immunity contingent on good faith, it would have said so, as it did in (c)(2)(A)
