Well end times for tech when @SpeakerPelosi and @tedcruz agree. https://t.co/Gpf5kQGx3j

Folks should tell @SpeakerPelosi we agree with her. Our trade agreements shouldn't immunize nat'l and int'l tech companies from responsibilities for their products. Don't believe propaganda that this language protects speech. It protects $$$ of the richhttps://t.co/MN655Oof91

this actually isn't agreement. the liability protections the speaker is eying in USMCA is a far different beast than allegations of political bias, which even if true (and experts say they aren't), is appropriate moderation under 230 and not something Dems are trying to address https://t.co/XLTTCGy272

Big Tech companies have been legally protected for far too long!

Time for them to be held accountable for their actions and be held to the fullest extent of the law
Protect our data.
Protect our speech.
Protect our privacy. #USMCA https://t.co/fYRXjM9ttp
USMCA may lose another business friendly provision if this goes ahead ... https://t.co/rwexP98of2

The halo is officially off Google and Facebook. Reminder, nearly every single state is also investigating them for antitrust. Unbridled access to our data coupled with near zero liability for the content farming and distribution leveraged to get it...now called into question. https://t.co/pnqRpxaq66

This is bad. We need more transparency & protections for consumers not for Big Tech. @ewarren has a plan for that. #Warren2020 @TeamWarren #YesWePlan #BreakUpBigTech https://t.co/pYigCelpTN

.@repgregwalden has legit concern that #USMCA would prohibit the 3 signing countries from adopting laws that hold tech firms liable as content providers. @USTradeRep Lighthizer also has legit view that we should enshrine US law in pact. https://t.co/rDHZi2ERCQ

Pelosi pushes to keep tech's legal shield out of trade agreement with Mexico and Canada https://t.co/sBbOLsTlNZ

"Content groups, like the Recording Industry Association of America, have opposed including the provision in trade agreements in part due to fears that other countries could implement the law in a way that endangers copyright protections."?? #Section230https://t.co/hQEf9Hqfdh
— Jess Miers (@jess_miers) December 8, 2019
Section 230 only protects against liability for content, not business processes. It doesn't have any effect on liability for violations of laws on commerce, licensing, reporting or for failing to meet due care standards. It's not much of a shield. https://t.co/OwFH1FAjJl

New opposition from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi this week left the tech industry at risk of losing a cherished trade deal provision that could help cement its liability shield regarding content their users post. https://t.co/RRUyDFE4GW
