Regulating Digital Intermediaries
- Starts: 3:00 pm on Wednesday, April 4, 2018
- Ends: 4:30 pm on Wednesday, April 4, 2018
Online platforms such as Amazon and Facebook have presented a host of potential societal challenges, touching on independent elections, free speech, monopoly power, and consumer protection. These issues raise questions about how government agencies can best use their existing authority, and how the current regulatory architecture should be updated. This Cyber Alliance discussion will consider existing regulatory efforts with a goal of exploring structural reforms to improve digital intermediary oversight.
