On this episode of Bloomberg Government’s “Suspending the Rules” podcast, Bloomberg News congressional reporter Daniel Flatley and BGOV legislative analyst Naoreen Chowdhury discuss the protests and congressional action, as well as China’s response to the House bills.

Republicans and Democrats are increasingly discussing potential changes to the law that protects social media platforms and other internet companies from liability for their users’ content. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has said that companies should face more accountability for their privacy practices and moderation of harmful content, while conservative lawmakers have introduced bills to prevent what they say is censorship of conservative voices. The White House is also reportedly drafting a proposal to require social media companies not to censor viewpoints in a politically biased way. On this special episode of Bloomberg Government’s “Suspending the Rules,” technology reporter Rebecca Kern speaks with Elizabeth Banker, vice president and associate general counsel at the Internet Association, about the law, known as "Section 230," and her group’s views on proposed changes. The association represents online companies like Facebook, Google, and Yelp. This is the second of two episodes in a series looking at Section 230 liability protections. The first, an interview with Public Knowledge Legal Director John Bergmayer, was released on Aug. 6. Contact the BGOV podcast team at [email protected].
