SUMMARY:No Going Back: Global Communication & Post-Pandemic Politics | Annenberg School for Communication
DESCRIPTION:On suddenly sparse streets\, artists confront the grim reality of the moment. With a nod to the anti-globalization movement or the music notes seemingly playing off the guest that has overstayed its welcome\, both messages diagnose the ailment and gesture toward a hope for and belief in change. In a moment shaped by closures — of borders\, stores\, schools\, offices\, jobs\, and\, for many\, a dream of “going back to normal” — what openings are made possible? \nThe second biennial early career conference by the Center for Advanced Research in Global Communication (CARGC) at the Annenberg School at the University of Pennsylvania asks: What are post-pandemic politics? We understand post-pandemic\, not as a myopic focus on COVID-19\, but rather as an optic illuminating both persistent and emergent conditions of inequity and precarity. We also use post-pandemic as an opportunity to imagine new forms of politics\, community\, solidarity\, and action.

SUMMARY:Section 230: Protections Can Legal Revisions or Novel Technologies Limit Online Misinformation and Abuse: A Workshop (Day 1) | National Academies
DESCRIPTION:This is the first day of a virtual workshop to identify key issues for consideration in the reexamination of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996.  Section 230 provides Internet-based technology companies and social media platforms with immunity from civil liability for hosting user-generated content and in the removal or moderation of user-generated content. While Section 230 has played a significant role in the development of the Internet as a platform for the global exchange of information and ideas\, disinformation and abuse on social media has become an issue of increasing concern. The workshop will explore how law\, policy\, and technology might better enable management of third party content while preserving free speech and democratic norms. \n[…]\n
