Reacts: Should Congress Apologize To Mark Zuckerberg? w/ Emil Michael

Should Congress apologize to Mark Zuckerberg?

If you haven’t been living under a rock recently, major tech company CEOs have been hauled into Congress to discuss child safety and moderation on their platforms.

What does it mean? 

Is Congress right to really drill down on these CEOs?

What else could Congress be doing to really change the current climate to protect our kids while also protecting democracy and free speech?

To debate the hottest topic in tech this week is Emil Michael, former Chief Business Officer of Uber, Chris Saad and Yaniv Bernstein.

Together the insiders discuss:

⚖️The balance between regulation and platform benefits

👀Excessive oversight 

🛡️🔍Accountability of tech companies for harmful content amplified by algorithms and the role of regulation in addressing these issues

🧪🦠The Lab Leak Theory
