A conversation about #electionsecurity is happening now at #GeorgetownLaw with @GeorgetownICAP's Professor Joshua Geltzer and @amac. Follow this thread for updates.pic.twitter.com/WqC7AEwuCY
.@amac, former general counsel at #Twitter, discusses how social platforms see might their role in #electionsecurity. Platforms will use tools like "engineering or product changes, new policies, communications from the company and more transparency."
"It's unrealistic to think social platform companies will be effective at a conflict with a nation-state like Russia." - @amac #ElectionSecurity
"Congress has had some good expert hearings with the tech industry, but there hasn't been a lot of movement." But, at least they're educating themselves on the problem. "Congress definitely lacks tech expertise." Hopefully this will change over time. - @amac #ElectionSecurity
Rolling back Section 203 immunity for tech companies is problematic, says @amac. "We don't agree on what types of content are great and what are not." "The idea that Congress can come up with a test for determining that doesn't strike me as viable." #ElectionSecurity
Can anything be done before #midterms to help w/ #ElectionSecurity in U.S? @GeorgetownICAP's Joshua Geltzer: "A public awareness campaign in an apolitical sort of way," reminding people to be vigilant and to not believe everything they see on the web. "Healthy Skepticism."
.@Amac agrees, adding: "We need to ensure that there is good line of communications between state and federal experts, and with the cybersecurity community. There needs to be a coordinated way of thinking in case an #ElectionSecurity issue arises before/during the #midterms.
.@GeorgetownICAP's Joshua Geltzer on @facebook's decision to shut down more than two dozen inauthentic accounts & pages that sought to inflame social & political tensions in the US: "It's more than they did in 2016." "But it strikes me as bizarrely little & bizarrely late."
