Hillary Clinton calls for government action to force censorship
작성자 정보
Hillary Clinton called for a government crack down on social media, sparking users on X to accuse her of saying 'the quiet part out loud.'
The former Secretary of State told CNN host Michael Smerconish Saturday that leaders could 'lose control' if they don't take serious action to censor digital content - sparking outcry on the web.
'Democrats see the internet as a propaganda tool rather than a medium for the open exchange of information!!' Tom Callahan wrote on X.
'They are afraid of exposure, indictment and imprisonment,' Wendy Stone added. 'I hope we make their fears come true.'
Clinton called for the federal government to imitate states like California and New York to place more controls on social media.
'We need national action and sadly our Congress has been dysfunctional when it comes to addressing these threats to our children,' Clinton said.
Clinton brought up the issue in the context of controlling more of what children were experiencing on social media and getting addicted to content on major platforms.
She called for the repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Act, the keeps online platforms from being held liable for content posted by users on their platforms.
That legal carve out, she argued, was an 'overly simple view' that did not take into account the dangers of social media.
'[I]f the platforms, whether it's Facebook or Twitter/X or Instagram or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don't moderate and monitor the content, we lose total control,' she said.
They are afraid of exposure, indictment and imprisonment. I hope we make their fears come true.
