“The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the first of two cases regarding a little-known law that shields platforms like Google, Twitter and YouTube from lawsuits over third-party content posted on their sites. The final outcome of the case could have far-reaching repercussions for online speech and content moderation.” “This week, the Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments on two pivotal cases dealing with online speech and content moderation. Central to the arguments is “Section 230,” a federal law that’s been roundly criticized by both Republicans and Democrats for different reasons but that tech companies and digital rights groups have defended as vital to a functioning internet.” “If that happens, the Court’s decisions could expose online platforms to an array of new lawsuits over how they present content to users.” “One of the law’s architects, Oregon Democratic Sen.

I am 20, nearly 21, and it may just be the anxiety talking, but I’m worried for my future and how I will afford just about anything when I can barely keep a job for extended periods of time. This post will mainly be context to my situation, so if you already have tips, please send them my way! If your tip is “you’re so young, things will work out,” please take that up with the employers I’ve been getting no responses from. Basic context: I live in CO in the US.
