Episode notes
Regulate Algorithms, Not Ordinary Speech
- Hold platforms to the same standards as traditional media if they algorithmically elevate falsehoods.
- Remove profit incentives for amplifying demonstrably false or harmful content rather than criminalizing offensive speech.
Freedom With Limits And Platform Accountability
- Scott argues democracy should allow almost anyone to say almost anything, barring defamation or incitement to violence.
- He believes platforms should lose Section 230 protections when algorithmically elevating false or harmful content.
Use Honest Escalation And Market Leverage
- Before going to someone senior, try an honest conversation with your manager to avoid appearing to tattle.
- Consider job switching every 5–7 years to accelerate advancement and pay growth if the situation stalls.
