I spoke to @thehill about how it's irresponsible and unconscionable for Democrats to continue pushing for changes to Section 230 while ignoring the voices of sex workers and LGBTQ+ folks who were harmed by SESTA/FOSTA, the last major change to Section 230 thehill.com/policy/technol…
There are no witnesses at today's hearing who are experts in sex work or the impact of SESTA/FOSTA on LGBTQ+ folks.
Not a single lawmaker on the committee responded to or acknowledged the concerns in this letter signed by 70+ human rights groups fightforthefuture.org/news/2021-01-2…

This is no way to make policy. Lawmakers need to stop ignoring sex workers. Period.
Beyond the substantive concerns with changing Section 230, let's talk about the political reality that none of the bills being discussed today have a chance in hell of moving forward.

Dems may only get one shot to actually get something done that reduces the harm of Big Tech and surveillance capitalist monopolies.
History won't look kindly on them if they squander that opportunity obsessing over Section 230 instead of finally getting, say, a privacy law done
