Moderated Content - A podcast by evelyn douek

Alex and Evelyn talk about the totally unsurprising news that Twitter is complying with more government take-down orders under Musk and the very underwhelming "transparency report" they released this week. Also: the EU designated 19 platforms VLOPs and VLOSEs that will need to comply with the most onerous requirements under its new Digital Services Act; it looks like someone in Montana finally talked to a First Amendment lawyer, as the Governor requests changes to its TikTok ban bill; more bipartisan moral panic on the Hill with the Protecting Kids on Social Media Act; and Bluesky's trust and safety challenges ahead.
