Oral Argument in Twitter, Google ISIS Cases Set for February

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral argument in web platform liability cases Gonzalez v. Google and Twitter v. Taamneh on February 21 and 22, said a release Monday. Gonzalez v. Google’s oral argument will be Feb. 21, and for Twitter v. Taamneh Feb. 22. Both cases involve the question of whether Internet companies can be held liable for the activities of terrorist groups that use their platforms. SCOTUS rulings in either case are expected to have implications for the future of Internet content moderation (see 2212010070).
