You get your e-mail with Google, you host your code on Github, you run your cluster with Amazon Web Services, you deliver content through Cloudflare and you receive your payments through Stripe and what’s the one thing all of these companies have in common? They were founded in the United States.
What would happen if you suddenly lost your livelihood because of legislation that another country passed? Would your company be able to survive a legislation change that prevented you from using these services?
I’ll be talking about the current state of internet legislation, the importance of legislation like Section 230 (Safe Harbor) of the Communication & Decency Act and the ramifications that recently passed legislation is having on the sex and technology industry.
