Big Tech CEOs: Sec 230 Is Very Important; Zuckerberg Advocates Updating Law

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says Congress should update a key law that affects his company. 

Zuckerberg testified remotely before a Senate committee about Section 230 and said the law helped create the Internet that we know, but times have changed. 

Section 230 is a provision that doesn't hold big tech companies liable for posts made by users on their platforms. 

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey also testified and said speech will no longer be on the Internet should the law go away. 

The CEO of Google's parent company Sundar Pichai added his thoughts, saying lawmakers should be careful about the changes they consider. He said lawmakers should take businesses and customers into account when looking at possible changes to the law.
