Hawley unveils bill targeting Big Tech’s shield – Axios

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) Wednesday will introduce legislation that would give consumers grounds to sue companies like Facebook or Twitter over accusations of selective censorship of political speech.

The big picture: The legislation is the latest attack on online platforms’ legal protections from liability over content posted by users, and comes after President Trump signed an executive order taking aim at the protections in May.
