In the Counsel's Chair: David Kaye on freedom of expression in the digital age

In the third episode of In the Counsel's Chair, David Kaye shares his perspective on global free speech monitoring and contemporary threats to expression in America. David Kaye spent six years as the United Nations Special Rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression, traveling from Ethiopia to Japan investigating how governments enable -- or suppress -- free speech. Now a clinical professor at UC Irvine School of Law, he's turned his attention to pressures emerging at home. In this conversation, David explains his work monitoring global free speech for the UN. He breaks down what Europe's Digital Services Act and the UK's Online Safety Act actually do, shares his view on why American critics of European tech regulation are often arguing in bad faith, and offers his assessment of how the current administration's approach to free speech differs from its predecessors. He also shares his perspective on what he sees as the biggest threats to expression in America right now.
