Ethan Zuckerman Daphne Keller Knight First Amendment Institute There are technical fixes to some of this as well. Basically run the middleware in a trusted sandbox (whether operated by platform or other intermediary) that doesn't allow exfiltration.

Possibly earthshaking move by Ethan Zuckerman & Knight First Amendment Institute, to revitalize this important law: “It is the policy of the United States… to encourage the development of technologies which maximize user control over what information is received by individuals… who use the Internet…”

What tangled WWW's we weave! But don't panic! - it all works out given enough trial and error - maybe, if (as Daphne Keller suggested), we don't terminate in chaos or tyranny.

"What explains the disconnect between the potential urgency of AI risks and the relative lack of government focus?" writes Duncan Cass-Beggs. "Two crucial knowledge gaps stand out: the first about the nature of the risks, and the second about how best to take action."

Outstanding, easy to understand, explanation of why we need social media middleware to "…maximize user control over what information is received by individuals… who use the Internet…” -- as § 230 makes US policy. Thanks Ethan Zuckerman Knight First Amendment Institute nytimes.com/2024/05/05/opi…

Classic piece by Daphne Keller, plus great threads showing collective intelligence at work - in expanding understanding of how collective intelligence works in social media and how to manage it - drawing on her, me, @[email protected], Mike Masnick, Francis Fukuyama , Cory Doctorow NONCONSENSUAL BLUE TICK (AFK), & others.

Let’s be clear: Someone who suggested the “termination” of the Constitution should never have the chance to stand behind the seal of the President of the United States. Never again.

The main thing you should know about X v. Bonta, the 9th Circuit's new ruling saying major parts of California's platform transparency law violate the First Amendment, is that it uses terminology from my transparency article :) 1/ cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opin…
