Even before the controversy erupted over the suppression of the New York Post article last week, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey were scheduled to testify before the Senate Commerce Committee on October 28 in response to proposed reform of Section 230 liability protections due to the evidence of their consistently anti-conservative partisan bias. Zuckerberg and Pichai also testified, alongside Apple CEO Tim Cook and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, before the House Antitrust Subcommittee in July, in response to suggestions by leading Democrats, such as Senator Elizabeth Warren, that their giant companies exert too much control over free speech and the dissemination of news over social media and the internet. Their critics across the political spectrum, both in Europe and the United States, argue that companies that wield such monopolistic power have an obligation to act in the public interest.
