The DOJ hosted a four hour public workshop entitled "Section 230 – Nurturing Innovation or Fostering Unaccountability?" and Ms. Beebe had the opportunity to be in the audience. "The workshop seemed to be the same tired arguments about how humans are bad and how tech needs to find a way to fix the bad human problem. It also seemed to be an attempt to push Attorney General Barr's push to end end-to-end encryption which is a valuable data privacy and security tool," said Ms. Beebe.
