This year the U.S. justice system, including the Supreme Court, would take on cases that would help it determine the limits of free speech.<br \/>\nThese cases could also determine the extent to which platforms have the authority or the responsibility to promote or remove content through their algorithms. This comes amid increased pressure from legislators to diminish the protections offered by Section 230, with many Democrats wanting platforms to remove more hateful content and Republicans wanting to leave up more posts that align with their views.<\/p>\n<p>A scenario in which internet platforms owned and operated by big tech companies could be held responsible for the content that\u2019s put up or taken down while being vulnerable to political influences regarding the kind of content that could be considered \u201cappropriate\u201d or otherwise at a given point in space or time, could turn the Internet, especially social media, into a legal minefield or a drab, disorganized mess.<\/p>\n<p>General Counsel Halimah DeLaine Prado <a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/outreach-initiatives\/public-policy\/gonzalez-v-google-and-the-future-of-an-open-free-and-safe-internet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)<\/a> summarized GOOGL\u2019s position by saying, \u201cWithout Section 230, some websites would be forced to over block, filtering content that could create any potential legal risk, and might shut down some services altogether.\u201d She further added, \u201cThat would leave consumers with less choice to engage on the internet and less opportunity to work, play, learn, shop, create, and participate in the exchange of ideas online.\u201d<br \/>\nCivil society groups also expressed concerns that amid increased pressure to ensure compliance in a risky legal field in a more nuanced way, the for-profit tech companies would find it more cost-effective to simply censor everything.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to muffling a lot of underrepresented voices, an Internet that\u2019s a virtual equivalent of Disneyland populated with AI-generated happy and politically correct content would become an echo chamber that would drive down user engagement and advertising revenues, thereby impacting profitability.<br \/>\nHence, an effort to ensure survival in an environment of increased regulation could ironically result in Internet platforms shooting themselves in the foot.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mailmunch-forms-widget-1089216\"><\/div>\n<h3>(Maybe) A Middle Path?<\/h3>\n<p>On November 18, 2022, while reinstating controversial Twitter users Kathy Griffin, Jordan Peterson, and the Babylon Bee, Elon Musk, a self-described \"free speech absolutist,\" tweeted: \"New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.\"<\/p>\n<p>He added that Twitter would demonetize and not promote tweets containing hate speech or otherwise \u201cnegative\u201d content. This approach is similar to the strategy employed by YouTube, a video-sharing platform owned by GOOGL, where the site's algorithm suppresses some provocative content but is not entirely taken down.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, just like it works on the rest of the Internet, users cannot see particular content or types of content unless they explicitly search for it.<\/p>\n<p>The term \u201cnegative\u201d could still remain open to interpretation and manipulation by for-profit organizations or the political ideology representing the majority worldview, and restricted visibility or access to ideas and viewpoints could induce radicalization and extremism. However, that could still be an improvement over Internet platforms swamped with compliance issues.<\/p>\n<p>As parting food for thought, the Internet and society could become more open if<br \/>\n\u2018The Right To Be Offended\u2019 is accompanied by \u2018The Responsibility of Dealing With Offence Peacefully.\u2019<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Holocaust survivor Susan Sontag, when asked, summed up her lesson from her struggle with a simple yet profound observation that 10% of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10% is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80% could be moved in either direction.
