President Trump Ask FCC To Take Next Step In Tech Crackdown
President Trump Ask FCC To Take Next Step In Tech Crackdown
The Commerce Department petitioned the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on Monday to narrow the liability protections of online companies, as President Donald Trump directed in May in what he pitched as a crackdown on anti-conservative bias.
Monday’s petition includes a request that the FCC impose a regulatory requirement on social media companies, even though the agency doesn’t regulate them.
What the petition asks: The executive branch is requesting the FCC to come up with rules addressing several aspects of interpreting the 1996 statute. It asks the FCC to “[m]andate disclosure for internet transparency similar to that required of other internet companies, such as broadband service providers.” The FCC now applies such transparency requirements on internet providers as part of net neutrality protections, but it has never attempted to do the same to social media platforms.
“The FCC should use its authorities to clarify ambiguities in section 230 so as to make its interpretation appropriate to the current internet marketplace and provide clearer guidance to courts, platforms, and users,” said the 57-page petition from the Commerce Department’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration.
Among the asks: Specify that Section 230 doesn’t apply to internet companies’ “decision, agreement, or action to restrict access to or availability of material provided by another information content provider or to bar any information content provider from using an interactive computer service.” It asks the FCC to provide “clearer guidance” on what content warrants protection from liability and the nature of good faith content moderation.
The petition is signed by Douglas Kinkoph, the acting head of NTIA. The Commerce agency has lacked a Senate-confirmed head for more than a year, with no new leader nominated.
The President has the American people on his side, with 72% thinking social media has too much power & influence. President Trump should use this opportunity to get the Silicon Valley Cabal into line.
