In this episode, Hannah Bloch-Wehba, Assistant Professor of Law at Drexel University Thomas R. Kline School of Law and Affiliated Fellow at Yale Law School's Information Society Project, discusses her article "Global Platform Governance: Private Power in the Shadow of the State," published in the Southern Methodist University Law Review. Bloch-Wehba begins by discussing the dynamics of policies created and enforced by content providers on the internet, noting that terms of service created by platforms are influenced both by their personal interests and the interests of states. She details how the existing notice-and-takedown approach in intellectual property protection and hate/terrorist speech regulation intersects with state interests in those areas, and how the regulatory landscape is beginning to switch toward more proactive measures to be adopted by platforms. And she details how such actions lack legitimacy and accountability, and discusses potential solutions through unilateral platform action and state legislative efforts. She concludes by discussing why the developments matter and what regulators, platforms, and people should take away from the developments in global platform governance. Bloch-Wehba is on Twitter at @HBWHBWHBW.This episode was hosted by Luce Nguyen, a college student and the co-founder of the Oberlin Policy Research Institute, an undergraduate public policy research organization based at Oberlin College.
