Yang's proposal to regulate Section 230 is likely to further erode free speech online. And his plan to regulate political ads is also problematic, since what makes an ad "political" is inherently subjective, and therefore subject to abuse by government officials.

Reading Strategic Writing for UX by @torreybird love the point that UX writers need to be in all the early conversations with product, design, marketing, etc. We need to know the business, design, and user constraints. #cathyux
Just read Obviously Awesome by @aprildunford. Full disclosure, I thought it was a copywriting book. But now I think it's a must-read for any marketer. It's very short, but packed with good info. aprildunford.com/obviously-a…
