It's an antitrust focused episode where Alex goes in-depth on the current situation around Twiiter's censorship of president Trump and the executive order in response. Additionally, Alex explains Section 230 (AKA Protection for private blocking and screening of offensive material), and breaks down the core functions of content platforms. The show closes with thoughts on how this new attention brought to social platforms could lead to the partial dilution of tech monopolies.
