Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey Testify at Senate Hearing | NBC News
Youtube ^ | Streamed live 4 hours ago | NBC News

Posted on 11/17/2020 12:03:39 PM PST by ransomnote

Notes:

The first 19 minutes of the video are a "STAND BY" message before coverage begins, so the link I provide starts at the 19 minute mark.

I will probably have to fast forward through people like Sidney Blumenthal's speech because he begins this hearing by attacking President Trump, saying he constantly lies and spreads disinformation and uses his presidential megaphone to so. Meanwhile, Blumenthal is using his megaphone in a congressional hearing on social media and election interferance to vicously attack the President.

Blumenthal pretends to "go after" tech but spends time defending them; it's kid gloves compared to his character assassination comments about President Trump.

Blumenthal sets up this hearing as a defense of free speech but he minimizes Social Media's abuses as "labeling" information of questionable data to protect people like Fauci from the threats of dangrous people. 

The senator stresses he's not opposed to free speech while stressing the value of social media reforms to stop content "violent white supremacists".  I haven't heard anything about Antifa or BLM though....

Senator Blumenthal goes "full venom" mode at the 31:40 minute mark.

  Dorsey of Twitter makes introductory remarks just after the 40 minute mark.

I presume you mean the goat which will eat a tin can, as opposed to the Greatest of All Time. LOL.

I completely agree about Senator Blackburn. I emailed her and thanked her. “I know the answer. It’s yes.” And she had proof to back it up.

Zuckerberg and Dorsey were kind of fumbling/mumbling. They couldn’t remember or what have you.

Well, she reminded them. Big time.

Her constituents are lucky to have her.

A goat is more useful.

is Youtube evil?

Youtube had a cleansing of videos analyzing the BLM/Antifa riots and other conservative topics.

Josh Hawley absolutely DESTROYED Zuckerbergermeister.

His closing summary reminded me of those big movie moments, like when Tom Cruise totally shreds Jack Nicholson in a Few Good Men.

Glad I had a chance to catch it.
