South Dakota War College - US Senator John Thune's Weekly Column: Holding Big Tech Accountable
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "Appreciate @Jack working on an idea that was generated from Stephen Wolfram's testimony at a hearing I convened on algorithm transparency in June 2019. "Algorithmic choice" is an idea worth exploring."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "Just look at big tech's public statements, geographic concentration, & employee political donations (normally 80-90% Dem), and it's clear why there's mistrust among Republican users. It's baffling how tech CEOs don't see this absence of ideological diversity as problematic."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "Due to big tech's secrecy around content moderation practices, it's impossible to know for sure if political bias exists, but recent examples of content suppression certainly seem to suggest that it does. Big tech's "explanations" for these examples too often seem like excuses."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "My question: Are Silicon Valley CEOs the legitimate referees of what kind of political speech gets amplified or suppressed? Zuckerberg: I certainly think not, I do not want us to have that role @Jack : No To underscore: tech companies are not the referees over our democracy."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "I asked Mr. Zuckerberg & Mr. Dorsey to provide a complete list of the newspaper articles their companies have suppressed or limited the distribution of over the past five years + an explanation of why they suppressed each article. These companies owe Americans more transparency."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Hearing of the Communications, Technology, Innovation, and the Internet Subcommittee of the Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee - Opening Statement of Sen. Thune, Hearing on Consumer Transparency and Accountability, Perceived Political Bias
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "The CEOs of @Facebook , @Twitter , and @Google should be ready for some tough questions at the @SenateCommerce hearing today. There needs to be more transparency from big tech on how they decide what content they suppress or promote."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2020
Tweet - "The Facebook employee who is in charge of election integrity on the platform is a former Biden staffer. And, according to Mr. Zuckerberg, he isn't even aware of it. Is there someone to balance this ideology in a similar election integrity role at his company? **crickets**"
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 27, 2020
Tweet - "Tomorrow I'll be questioning leaders of the big tech industry about their online content moderation practices. What would you ask them if you had the opportunity?"
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 26, 2020
Thune Joins "Full Court Press" with Greta Van Susteren
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 16, 2020
Tweet - "Social media companies act as a filter and create an information bubble for their users. Their algorithms filter info so users see what these platforms want users to see. This is a big problem. These companies have to be accountable."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 15, 2020
Tweet - "Americans deserve to know what content moderation policies are used by tech platforms when they suppress or amplify content. The New York Post story is a good example. Transparency in these decisions is a matter of accountability to the American people."
Sen. John Thune

Sen. John Thune
Oct. 1, 2020

Sen. John Thune
Sept. 30, 2020

Tweet - "Visitors might escape to SD's Black Hills to unplug from tech. But if an emergency occurs, reliable communications -- even in these beautiful, remote places -- is a top priority. Congress created FirstNet to improve communications services for our country's emergency personnel."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Had a quick cameo in @SocialDilemma_ at our hearing on persuasive tech. Tech platforms treating people as products & sowing polarization has been a concern of mine. @TristanHarris 's testimony was shocking. Since then, I've intro'd multiple bills on online privacy & transparency."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 17, 2020
Tweet - "Americans should have more control over their own personal data. It shouldn't be a mystery how companies collect & use our personal info. @SenatorWicker @SenatorFischer @MarshaBlackburn & I intro'd a bill to increase data transparency.#SAFEDATAAct"

Sept. 3, 2020

Sen. John Thune
Sept. 3, 2020
Tweet - "Automated vehicles have the potential to drastically improve safety on America's roads. I was glad to be a part of @USDOT @SecElaineChao 's launch of the AV TEST initiative. America should be leading the way to harness the safety & economic benefits of this emerging technology."
Sen. John Thune

July 28, 2020
