Episode description

Legislators on both the left and right have raised concerns over the control a few major platforms have over online speech.

Neil Chilson, Senior Research Fellow for technology and innovation at the Charles Koch Institute and former acting chief technologist at the FTC, joins the show to discuss the problems with this approach. For more, see his essay on the subject.
