==Survey Topic==
'''Working Title: ''' The key to thriving content platforms

'''Working Description:''' This session will educate participants on a threatened component of existing communications law that has enabled user-generated content for the last two decades. Today, platforms and infrastructure providers are not held liable for the content created or posted by users of their services - the user is responsible for their content. Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act is under attack by draft legislation and trade policies. Attend this session to understand why and what you can do to stop new platform liability, which would make it too risky and expensive for any but the very largest online platforms to host any user- generated news, views, or commerce.
