Graham Linehan to speak at congressional hearing on European big tech regulation

Is it not simply maintaining the basic TOS and tenets of the UN Charter of Human Rights, and the Rights of the Child, in the face of egregious civil and human rights violations driven BigTech's divine mandate to break things first (like criminal legislation) and apologise later?

What about that hot-topic in the GOP tent? Electoral interference?

//Irish and EU regulators aggressively “censored” social media coverage of Ireland’s 2024 general election and the recent presidential election, a panel of US politicians has claimed in a report.

//The report by the staff on the judiciary committee of the Republican-controlled US Congress alleges “harassment” against tech groups to undermine conservative and populist parties.

//It claims the European Commission and Irish media regulators in Coimisiún na Meán worked with “biased fact-checkers” and “left-wing” non-governmental organisations before the last two Irish elections.

Of course when European regulators do the bare minimum to prevent electoral interference, misinformation, and straight up electoral malfeasance to be propagated in opposition to our media and balance laws, it constitutes bigotry at the expense of the private American interests trying to control them!

Of course this is all a particular coincidence given its the week that French authorities raid X offices in Paris, summoning Musk in a cybercrime probe to determine his complicity in crimes including Holocaust denial and CSAM hosting, generation and distribution.

Well that's because he didn't assault him, just chucked his phone out of the door into the street.

This activist was at the event getting in everyone's faces looking for a reaction, and Linehan was, as usual, hot-headed enough to provide such a reaction.
