Prof. Alan Rozenshtein Authors Piece for Brookings on Section 230
Prof. Alan Rozenshtein wrote a piece for The Brookings Institution on Section 230 and its expansive impact on the internet. Professor Rozenshtein explained, “No statute has had a bigger impact on the internet than Section 230. The law, which prevents any online platform from being ‘treated as the publisher or speaker’ of third-party content, has enabled the business models of the technology giants that dominate the digital public sphere. Whether one champions it as the ‘Magna Carta of the internet’ or vilifies it as the ‘law that ruined the internet,’ there is no doubting that the statute ‘made Silicon Valley.’”
