I am a C Level who oversees a large team of corporate Attorneys and Contract Negotiation Specialists, and am the sole signatory for my Corporation and each business unit. I am also responsible for policy development, implementation and compliance. I have dealt in IP, FAR, regulatory, and legislative matters for 35 years and have negotiated with many, many Government entities and presented in professional forums and negotiated with a lot of fortune 100 companies. I have also been extensively involved in mergers and acquisitions. Although I am fairly crappy at a bunch of things, I know what those things are - and I have seen to it that they are not part of my core responsibilities. Regardless, I do not lack confidence in things with which I have experience. I have a lot of familiarity in the issues I described above (otherwise I wouldn't have said anything). I learned long ago that opinions are like a$$holes, everyone has them, but you usually do not need to make that apparent. Clearly, I couldn't do my job unless I am surrounded and supported by very competent and capable (and really good) people, who I am very loyal to.
Did I get the job (kidding)?
Edit - BTW I usually do not talk about stuff like this because doing so trends to make me sound like I am a pretentious and hierarchical jerk. I am not pretentious or hierarchical. The other part is open to interpretation.
P.S. - I realize that not everyone may be familiar with the projections afforded under Section 230 - so I pulled this directly from Wikipedia: Section 230, as passed, has two primary parts both listed under §230(c) as the "
Good Samaritan" portion of the law. Section 230(c)(1), as identified above, defines that an information service provider shall not be treated as a "publisher or speaker" of information from another provider. Section 230(c)(2) provides immunity from
civil liabilities for information service providers that remove or restrict content from their services they deem "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected", as long as they act "in good faith" in this action.
By almost every standard, social media platforms that edit/restrict content are, indeed, publishers and should not be subject to or benefit from this immunity. Selectively applying restrictions fails the essence of the standard of barganing in good faith and fairly.
