SUMMARY:Oklahoma City Chapter: Section 230 in the Supreme Court
DESCRIPTION:Courts have uniformly held that 47 U.S.C. § 230 gives internet platforms a broad immunity against liability for content posted by the platforms’ users. This immunity has become a hot topic in recent years\, as lawmakers have called for changes to the way content is moderated on social media. But until 2023\, the Supreme Court had not interpreted the scope of section 230. This talk explores section 230’s immunity and four pending cases in which the Supreme Court is likely to decide what power the government has to compel—or restrict—content moderation online. \nWith your registration you will also receive a link to attend remotely should you choose to do so. \nRegistration\nDeadline to register is April 28\, 2023\nRSVP: Register Here! \nRegistration Fee: \n\nFree – FBA Member\n$25 – Non Member\n\nIf you have any questions regarding this program\, please contact Amanda Finch at OklahomaCityFBA@okcfedbar.com\,
