Hi,
On Feb. 8, 1996, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act — the foundation of expression on the internet — was signed into law.
Exactly 25 years later, this provision is more endangered than ever. Republicans blame it for censorship, Democrats blame it for misinformation, and nearly everyone thinks it needs reform.
But if policymakers aren’t smart about structuring reform, there could be broad, unanticipated consequences for free expression and commerce.
Join Verge senior reporter Adi Robertson for an in-depth, live event about the real-world implications of 230 reform: what’s being considered, who has skin in the game, the universe of potential outcomes, and the ramifications for individuals and businesses.
