Fifth Circuit per curium order is published on the App Store Accountability Act’s constitutionality. I’ll let the court opinion speak for itself. 🧵

When chatbots encourage minors to self-harm, the tragedies raise uncomfortable questions about AI and free speech. 🎧On the latest episode of The Center Edge, I discuss the Post-Human First Amendment w/@johnehrett and @AmerCompass's Brad Littlejohn. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Best think tank podcast out there right now! I’m excited @SayreEvan is finally able to build the show DC policy world needs. Kudos to @DigitalProInst for building this capacity. Well done, friends!
🚨New podcast launched: The Center Edge. Tech policy gets made in the center. The rhetoric lives at the edge. This show is about both. 👇Episode 1 with Chair @BrendanCarrFCC is out now —drones, routers, satellites, and evolving Republican approaches to leading the agency.

Under @AFergusonFTC, the agency is doing vital work—including to protect consumers from deceptive billing and junk fees, ensure delivery drivers get what they're promised, and enforce child privacy law. @JonSchweppe is right: the FTC needs more funding. See his Substack👇️

“The lesson is clear. When policymakers make more licensed spectrum available, streamline deployment rules, and allow markets to function, investment follows. That drives competition. And when companies compete, consumers benefit.” As always, @AjitPai is correct! washingtonexaminer.com/op-ed…

We are proud to stand alongside groups on both sides of the aisle to promote robust competition in the tech space! We hope Congress moves expeditiously to make these bills law!
🧵Bipartisan coalition to @SenJudiciaryGOP: reintroduce the American Innovation and Choice Online Act. Led by @DigitalProInst and @publicknowledge, the letter says AICOA would reduce consumer costs and address anti-competitive harms to small businesses. @BenBrodyDC's report👇

It was great to interview my good friend FTC Commissioner @MeadorFTC at @MooseInstitute’s America First Antitrust Forum! Commissioner Meador gave an excellent overview of why antitrust’s true goal is to protect everyday Americans and families. He also described how he and @AFergusonFTC are leveraging both competition and consumer protection authorities under Section 5 of the FTC Act to advance those America First objectives. Honored to be a part of this fantastic summit!

Thanks to @AidenBuzzetti and @MooseInstitute for hosting a fantastic summit on antitrust. It was a pleasure to moderate this panel on bottlenecks to innovation. Speakers with deep expertise covered antitrust issues around chips, app stores, IP, standards bodies, and more.

Lots of truth here, I’ve found many older DC institutions require heavy investment to get their attention. Meaning the only way to leverage their distinguished office space or cafeteria is with a ridiculously significant contribution. Newer orgs that are based on an individual with drive, a newsletter, as well as an incredible network on hill and in the admin can accomplish so much more for a fraction of the contribution. They are the start ups of Massachusetts Ave. A great example of this is @DigitalProInst. In just a couple years they have become the most trusted think tank on telecom matters. Why? Because they are go getters who churn. Working towards the next policy win, not an institution that lives off their legacy.

DPI board member Grace Koh just testified before @SenateCommerce on the US’s prep for World Radiocommunication Conference 2027 (WRC-27). Key takeaways: ✅ start earlier ✅ protect process integrity ✅ build coalitions now ✅ prepare for a tougher Shanghai environment ✅ sustain U.S. leadership at the International Telecommunication Union. WRC outcomes shape the future of global wireless—getting this right matters! commerce.senate.gov/2026/3/u…
