Free Speech vs the Internet
Parler taken offline and President Trump silenced by social media giants.
In the past week, President Trump has been deleted from Twitter, and suspended from Facebook - and now YouTube. Parler, a free speech network, has been forced offline after first Google and Apple, then Amazon, refused to host it. Is this grand de-platforming of Trump and his supporters the right thing to do? And if so, who should have the power to control how we speak online?
Guests: Amy Peikoff, Chief Policy Officer at Parler; Glenn Greenwald, author and journalist; Danielle Citron, professor of law at University of Virginia, Siddharth Venkataramakrishnan, Europe Tech Correspondent at the Financial Times; Robert Moore, ITV News Washington Correspondent; Sophie Alexander, ITV News Washington Producer.
Studio Engineer: Tim Heffer
