<http://livestream.com/internetsociety/sopa-pipa10>On *Tuesday
18 January 2022* at *11:00-12:30 EST* (16:30-17:30 UTC) the *Institute for
Technology Law & Policy at Georgetown Law <https://georgetowntech.org/>*
hosts a webinar '*Regulating the Internet Ten Years after the SOPA/PIPA
Blackout <https://bit.ly/3zTrXA6>*'. Calls to regulate the internet more
strictly are now commonplace, but a new *report from Freedom House
<https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-net/2021/global-drive-control-big-tech>*
observes both the promise and peril of internet regulation. The global
drive to control big tech thus carries a seeming contradiction: it can be
an expression of democracy but can also support authoritarianism. On the
tenth anniversary of the *blackout
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protests_against_SOPA_and_PIPA>* of
Wikipedia, Google, Reddit, and Mozilla in response to proposed internet
regulation in the U.S., we ask what we learned from the SOPA/PIPA debates,
take stock of where internet regulation stands today, and ask what internet
regulations carry the most promise or risk today.
