“Remember,
speech moderation at scale is hard. It’s one thing for platforms to come to a decision about how to handle divisive posts by a few public figures; it’s quite another for them to create rules affecting everyone’s speech and enforce them consistently and transparently. When platforms err on the side of censorship,
marginalized communities are silenced disproportionately. Congress should not try to pass laws dictating how Internet companies should moderate their platforms. Such laws
would not pass Constitutional scrutiny, would harden the market for social media platforms from new entrants, and would almost certainly censor innocent people unfairly.”
