Where and Why?</a></strong> in Washington DC. What happens when the desire for a free and open Internet collides to with efforts to prevent the growth of hate groups and violence? What are the responsibilities of the organizations that run the infrastructure of the Internet to prevent it from being misused by criminals, hate groups, and hostile governments? Do different parts of the “stack” have different roles and responsibilities? If private companies start to choose who can be heard online, will repressive governments require them to censor the global Internet? Speakers: <strong>Doug Kramer</strong> (Cloudflare); <strong>Mark MacCarthy</strong> (SIIA); <strong>Robert M. McDowell</strong> (Cooley LLP and former FCC Commissioner); Moderator <strong>Jeremy Grant</strong> (Venable LLP). The event will be webcast live on the <strong><a style="text-decoration:underline;color:#2585b2" href="https://livestream.com/internetsociety/censors" target="_blank">Internet Society Livestream Channel</a></strong>.<p></p>
