Democratic senators introduced a bill to hold Facebook, YouTube and other social media companies responsible for vaccine falsehoods, fake cures and other harmful health claims that proliferate on their platforms.

Life of and in Commerce Past, Present, and Future, beginning Now!!

Let's also hold Jojo the clown for border crisis. The emptying of prisons of South America in our country. .Impeach 46

This vaccine of a thing should be people’s choice not imposing..

Well that’s terrifying

All media (printed, audio, visual, social) should be held to the same standards. If the NYT were to print half the crap FB does, they would have been sued already.

The definition of “misinformation” should be fun to litigate.

If the vaccine is known to be so safe and effective why hasn’t the FDA approved it yet?

I would rather have the gun companies held ‘responsible’ for people misusing their product.

And what about holding congresspersons, senators, governors, etc. accountable? Or even a past President who's false statements created an insurrection? I agree with the idea, but leaders should lead by example, not just make laws for everyone else.

Gdad1 Somebody needs to. Can they do FoxNews , OANN and newsmax too? And all the ignorant radio mouthpieces too?(lookin hard at you on this one seanhannity) SenateDems

Newspapers can’t publish false statements. Makes sense since a lot of people get their news from social media.

Report abuse or harm please!

What about the president? When will he be held accountable?

So... do away with section 230? We've come full circle. The right and the left agree on something completely bonkers.

Wow there goes the first amendment. 1st, who takes health care advice from Twitter? 2nd, if someone wants to say the vaccines aren’t safe, that’s their right. Don’t turn the US into communist China.

Very frightening to me, of course I am against any misinformation, but why does the government get to decide what is and isn’t misinformation? Seems like this law, if passed, will be challenged, held to a strict scrutiny standard and overturned. Klobuchar knows this it’s for show

good to know dc has truth ; was starting to wonder ; Jesus says he offers eternal life , the high priests / pilate / herod didn't seem to agree with ..... brought in the military swat guys bizness

From 2014 to 2020, Social Media let the cancer grow without doing anything. For years they let that cancer metastase. A treatment came too late. On January 6th the American Democracy almost died. It's not out of the woods yet.

scriptures say believers will have a home in the new jerusalem , custom mansion else where , perfect health / no aging / no pain / travel speed of thought this doesn't seem important to some , guess it's a individual decesion

If Streaming services can automatically detect copyrighted music and de-stream that user within seconds, social media platforms can identify disinformation on specific topics.

Section 230 was written to protect companies. The question is whether this speech is a clear and present danger. Justice Holmes wrote 'the character of every act depends upon the circumstances in which it is done.' Is misinformation causing explict harm or complicit ignorance?

Jesus says he offers eternal life some mock Jesus

Agree!
