Podcasts about internet act

Join former NASCAR® driver and Fox Sports® analyst (or as he says in the opening, a former “Spox Forts Analyst”) Hermie Sadler along with his good buddy Virginia State Senator Bill Stanley as they dive into the important topic facing parents today -- protecting their children from the “woke” politicians who let men into women's sports, into women's bathrooms, and those who think that Senator Stanley's ground-breaking bill (and soon to be new law in Virginia) to keep children from being exposed to pornography on the internet (SB 1515) is “stupid” and “garbage.” Read Senator Stanley's monumental legislative victory for Virginia's children here -- The Protection of Minors From Harmful Materials on the Internet Act! -- LIS > Bill Tracking > SB1515 > 2023 session (virginia.gov) . And make sure that you give a listen as Sadler and the Senator defend the common-sense notion that parents rights are paramount in determining the direction of their sons' and daughters' upbringing. You will be riveted to the podcast as you get to hear certain elected Virginia politicians actually tell you, in their words, that protecting children is “garbage,” and “ridiculous nonsense.”  Seriously, we are not kidding.  And, for our growing Shep Moss following, he didn't make it to this podcast episode because he is, once again, vacationing……But Hermie and Bill promise that even without the Shepper, you will still love listening to this episode, just like Larry The Cable Guy says!

Tyler has been working with building artificially intelligent assistants since 2011. He has a Bachelors in Management from the University of Miami and a Certificate in Business Management from the University of Pennsylvania. His company is based in Manhattan’s Flatiron district. Resources Novo Bank News Roundup  Microsoft steps up fight to save DACA Microsoft is stepping up its fight to save the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program on behalf of its 66 DACA employees, referred to as “Dreamers”. The Obama-era program grants relief to the children of undocumented migrants who have spent their entire childhood in the United States. Applicants to the program do need to meet several requirements in order to qualify for DACA. For example, they can’t have any felony convictions or more than 3 misdemeanors. They also have to have earned a high school diploma or GED. If they qualify, Dreamers get renewable, 2-year deferrals from being deported and can ultimately become eligible to obtain a work permit. President Trump has said he would end the program. So many, including Microsoft, have been pushing Congress to pass legislation to protect Dreamers, since the program was established under the Obama administration through an executive memo. The courts, including the Supreme Court which prevented its expansion, have held that the program is likely unconstitutional without action from Congress. Big Tech invests billions to fund public housing efforts in California Big tech companies are investing billions to address California’s public housing shortage. It started with Apple announcing a $2.5 billion investment, followed by pledges from Google and Facebook who pledged to contribute $1 billion apiece. But local California officials have said that the investment will not be enough to address decades of rapid employment growth in the tech sector. This growth has pushed some 28,000 people out of their homes, according to the Hill. Vermont Congressman Bernie Sanders also criticized the program, calling for tax hikes, saying that its disingenuous for tech company tax evaders, who he says created the problem, to attempt to distract from it with investments that won’t be enough. Social media companies reconsider microtargeting in political ads Facebook, Google and Twitter are reconsidering allowing politicians to microtarget their ads based on user location and other factors. Twitter, for one, has banned all political advertising. Google is reportedly reconsidering its political ad policy with an announcement expected this week. These developments come amid criticism from Mozilla as well as an International Committee composed of lawmakers from Australia, Estonia, Finland, Georgia, Singapore, the UK and the United States, who have objected to microtargeting practices across social media.   Facebook, YouTube pledge not to name whistleblower Facebook and YouTube have said that they will remove content revealing the name of the potential whistleblower who disclosed President Donald Trump’s alleged attempt to require Ukraine to investigate Joe and Hunter Biden in exchange for aid. The whistleblower’s complaint is at the heart of the House of Representatives’ impeachment inquiry into the president.= Twitter however, will continue to allow users to post the name of the whistleblower, but will remove personally identifiable information such as his or her phone number and address.   Study: misinformation on Facebook is up ahead of 2020 election Avaaz, a global advocacy organization that tracks misinformation online, issued a study of the most viral fake political news stories in 2019. It found the stories generated nearly 160 million views, compared to 140 million views of fake news stories posted during the 2016 election. Some 62 percent of the fake stories were anti-Democrat.   NY Times: NYPD staffers took kickbacks from health clinics, doctors, and lawyers in exchange for car accident victim data The New York Times reports that staffers of the New York City Police Department took kickbacks from health clinics, doctors, lawyers, and a fraud insurance ring in Queens, in exchange for data from car accident victims. Prosecutors have charged 27 individuals for their alleged involvement. Fifty-one year-old Anthony Rose allegedly directed the scheme in which 911 call operators sent car accident victims in low-income areas in New York City to fake call centers that directed them to partnering accident victim service providers. In exchange, the call centers allegedly paid kickbacks to Rose, a portion of which he then distributed to co-conspirators who worked for the NYPD.   Sole anti-net neutrality Democratic Senator tied to Comcast The American Prospect reports that it has tied Kyrsten Sinema, the only Democrat in the Senate who opposes the pro-net neutrality Save the Internet Act, to a Super PAC that’s funded by telecom lobbyists. The report states that Sinema directed contributions to the Super PAC that ultimately funded her own campaign.   Instagram to hide ‘likes’ beginning this week Finally, beginning this week, Instagram is expected to hide the number of ‘likes’ users generate from their posts. Users will reportedly continue to be able to see likes on their own posts, but not the likes of others’. But the new policy will only affect some of Instagram’s users. The Hill reports that YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook are also considering hiding likes.

The Save the Internet Act, intended to force the FCC to revert to regulating the Internet under Title II, passed the House earlier this month and will soon be considered in the Senate. But is the legislation even necessary to protect consumers? Is it legally sound, or will it create new complexities and unintended consequences? TechFreedom President Berin Szóka joins the show to discuss. Here you can find the blogpost about Santa Clara Fire and Verizon and TechFreedom’s analysis of the Save the Internet Act.

As Congress marks its 100th day in session and we make our way through Q2 of 2019, we’re taking a closer look at several of the important issues that Congress will be addressing, from the Paris Accord to the review of judicial nominees and natural disaster relief for Puerto Rico. My guest, Elizabeth Frazee, is joining me for the second time on this podcast to share her insight and updates on the 116th U.S. Congress.  Elizabeth was named a “Top Lobbyist” by The Hill newspaper and has a 30-year career in Washington that encompasses over a decade working in high-level jobs on Capitol Hill, executive experience at leading tech and entertainment companies and years of successful representation of companies, trade associations and non-profits as a policy advocate and political strategist. What We Discuss in This Episode: How will Congress handle H.R. 1644 – Save the Internet Act of 2019? Given the disagreement between the House of Representatives and the Executive Branch, how will the House handle executive privilege, especially as it relates to the Mueller Report and security clearances? How does Congress feel about the redacted Mueller Report? What affect will Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s nuclear option have on presidential nominations? Will bipartisanship only increase with the Senate’s current approach to presidential nominees? Are party politics or qualifications influencing the Senate’s approach to the nominees? Will there be relief for the people of Puerto Rico? What are the prospects for the House’s bill, H.R.9, directing the U.S. to return to the Paris Agreement? How will privacy legislation be dealt with given federal preemption? What will happen with the trilateral treaty with Canada and Mexico, the USMCA? Is progress being made in the China-America trade negotiations?

Our current terrible FCC has fought hard to make the internet a business where companies thrive by throttling and prioritizing companies where ISPs should act as a dumb pipe and act as a service for all of us. Today, the Save the Internet Act (https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/1644/all-info) is making its round in hopes of reversal and to bring back those good old 2010 days of the FCC Open Internet Order (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FCC_Open_Internet_Order_2010).

  Maureen K. Ohlhausen: Should Antitrust Law Rein in Big Tech? (Ep. 179) Maureen K. Ohlhausen joined Joe Miller to discuss whether U.S. antitrust law is the appropriate mechanism by which to rein in big tech. Bio  Maureen K. Ohlhausen (@M_Ohlhausen) is the Antitrust and Competition Law Practice Chair and Partner at the law firm of Baker Botts. Previously, she served as Acting Chairman at the Federal Trade Commission for 2 years and prior to that as a Commissioner for 6. She directed all aspects of the FTC's antitrust work, including merger review and conduct enforcement, and steered all FTC consumer protection enforcement, with a particular emphasis on privacy and technology issues. A thought leader, Maureen has published dozens of articles on antitrust, privacy, IP, regulation, FTC litigation, telecommunications, and international law issues in prestigious publications and has testified over a dozen times before the U.S. Congress. Maureen has relationships with officials in the U.S. and abroad, with a particular emphasis on Europe and China, and has led the U.S. delegation at the international antitrust and data privacy meeting on many occasions. She has received numerous awards, including the FTC's Robert Pitofsky Lifetime Achievement Award. Prior to her role as a Commissioner, Maureen led the FTC's Internet Access Task Force, which produced an influential report analyzing competition and consumer protection legal issues in the area of broadband and internet. In private practice, he headed the FTC practice group at a leading telecommunications firm, representing and counseling telecommunications and technology clients on antitrust compliance, privacy, and consumer protection matters before the FTC and the FCC. She also clerked at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Resources Baker Botts – Antitrust and Competition Law Practice Group Here’s how we can break up big tech by Elizabeth Warren (Ms. Ohlhausen argues against.) News Roundup Facebook blocks race, age, gender, ZIP code ad targeting for housing, employment, credit Facebook is no longer permitting housing, employment and credit advertisers to target users based on their age, race, gender or zip code. This brings Facebook in line with federal rules preventing broadcasters from discriminating in ad sales contracts on the basis of race or gender. The new prohibitions are part of a settlement with several advocacy organizations that filed discrimination lawsuits against Facebook after ProPublica published an investigative report showing its ability to exclude certain ethnicities from seeing housing ads. Dems plan to vote on net neutrality bill on April 8th House democrats plan to vote, on Monday, April 8th, on the bill that would reinstate the 2015 net neutrality rules—the Save the Internet Act. Opponents are trying to tack on a bunch of Amendments even though the bill is pretty straight forward in terms of its intended scope. Even if the bill passes the House though, it faces an uphill climb in Mitch McConnel’s lair high up on the mountain  -- I mean the Senate. And the president would also have to sign it – we’ll see what happens. Security firm: Facebook stored user data in plain text for years This time, the security firm KrebsonSecurity found that, for years, Facebook stored hundreds of millions of user names and passwords in a text file. What’s the problem with this you ask? Well the text file was searchable by any of Facebook’s 20,000 employees. So let’s say a date didn’t go so well with some brah who happens to work at Facebook? Well guess what he could just go ahead and search for your password. Facebook has allegedly used this method dating back as far as 2012. Cummings demands documents related to Kushner’s use of encrypted app for official business House Oversight Chair Elijah Cummings has demanded documents from the attorney representing Jared Kushner regarding Kushner’s use of a private email address and What’s App to conduct official business. This of course is the same thing Republicans went after Hillary Clinton for during the 2016 presidential campaign. FCC to pay $43k in settlement for not releasing fake comments records The FCC will pay $43,000 in attorneys’ fees and costs to a New York journalist named Jason Prechtel for failing to turn over information, under a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, related to fake comments filed in the net neutrality proceeding. The case was settled without prejudice which means the FCC won’t admit to any wrongdoing—even though it didn’t respond to the journalist within the statutory timeframe. Nunes suing Twitter California Republican Representative Devin Nunes is suing Twitter and 3 users for $250 million saying he was “defamed” and claiming that Twitter bans conservative viewpoints.

Can Big Tech get busted up and does Facebook’s pivot to privacy seem legit? El Kaiser and J.D. roll through the recent news, stopping to ponder the “Save the Internet” Act, a slew of new streaming channels and the success of Captain Marvel at the box office — despite concentrated efforts from certain quarters to drag down the film’s ratings. It's all here on PTJ 303, where we also have our annual guide to helping your friends and family avoid tax-season scams this spring.

[Ryan](https://twitter.com/ryan_koch) takes us on a quick dive back into the world of Net Neutrality.
