      You think there would be _more_ speech online and less content removal without Section 230? ????‍♂️????‍♂️????‍♂️

      It online services like Twitter, YouTube and Facebook become legally responsible for all user generated content they will simply take down *anything* that poses a legal risk.

      No Section 230 = no speech online.

      @Thomas No, users could just opt out. Simple, just like when you go paintball, you sign a release (aka hit agree)

    I listened to the Senate Hearing this morning. The hearing was almost 4 hours long and what I learned was worth every minute. Hillary Clinton said that her 2016 loss was because of Russian disinformation so this hearing is so needed coming into the 2020 election.

    The very existence of the internet is to protect free speech. That should tell you all need to know. That idea is bigger then any CEO’s craving for control.

If one thing has become clear this season, finding the right talent for your team isn’t as easy as picking from a pile of resumes This week’s guest is Leah Solivan, the founder of Taskrabbit and now an early-stage investor who has seen that the power to change a homogenous startup exosystem comes from empowering diverse VCs to fund underrepresented founders who will hire the hidden tech talent.

From bootstrapping TaskRabbit on credit cards to scaling it into one of the defining companies of the gig economy, Leah learned firsthand that the hardest part of building a company isn’t the product, it’s selecting the right people to build it.

In this episode, Isabelle Johannessen and Leah unpack what it really takes to build diverse teams from day one and why most companies get it wrong by waiting too long. They also explore how the lack of diversity in venture capital directly shapes who gets funded, and ultimately, who gets hired.

Apply to Startup Battlefield: We are looking for early-stage companies that have an MVP. So nominate a founder (or yourself): techcrunch.com/apply. Be sure to say you heard about Startup Battlefield from the Build Mode podcast.

TechCrunch Disrupt: If you’re thinking about applying to Startup Battlefield, then October 13 to 15 in San Francisco, we’re back for TechCrunch Disrupt, where the Startup Battlefield 200 takes the stage. So if you want to cheer them on, or just network with 1000s of founders, VCs, and tech enthusiasts, then grab your tickets.
