Social Media On Trial: How The Supreme Court Could Permanently Alter The Future Of The Internet By Limiting Section 230'S Broad Immunity Shield, J. Tyler Wampler Jan 2023

Social Media On Trial: How The Supreme Court Could Permanently Alter The Future Of The Internet By Limiting Section 230'S Broad Immunity Shield, J. Tyler Wampler

Tennessee Law Review

Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act has allowed the internet to develop and flourish at an unprecedent pace. The law has been interpreted broadly to grant immunity to interactive computer services like social media platforms from liability for content posted by users. Wielding this immunity, internet platforms are empowered to act innovatively without fear of frivolous lawsuits. However, there are ongoing concerns that this broad interpretation shields modern tech companies from liability for actions that were never intended to be protected.

Two companion cases interpreting Section 230 are currently before the U.S. Supreme Court, where the Court is being …

Mississippi V. Tennessee, Jackson W. Welsh Jan 2023

Mississippi V. Tennessee, Jackson W. Welsh

Tennessee Law Review

The Supreme Court's decision in Mississippi v. Tennessee quietly marked a potential turning point for the once antiquated doctrine of equitable apportionment. This doctrine provides a framework for resolving disputes over the allocation of resources, usually water, that cross state boundaries, and has done so since the early 20th century. In this article, we will delve into the history of equitable apportionment, examining its evolution from 1907 to the present day. We explore the key cases that have slowly broadened the doctrine, with a particular focus on Mississippi v. Tennessee and its implications for the future of equitable apportionment. Through …

Ncaa V. Alston (Case Notes), Carson Blakely

Tennessee Law Review

In August 2013, I was a thirteen-year-old immersed in the world of NCAA Football 14, a popular video game by Electronic Arts (EA). Through my digital replicas and the actual Tennessee Volunteer football players, my friends and I led the Vols to three consecutive BCS National Championships. My fictional character, a top running back, won three Heisman Trophies, which remains my greatest athletic accomplishment to date. Then, EA announced the discontinuation of the NCAA Football franchise, leaving millions of digital coaches, including myself, perplexed.1 Little did I know that the issue at hand was the complex legal realm of Name, …

Tennessee Law Review

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act' ("IDEA") is a law that requires all students with disabilities to be provided with a free and appropriate education. 2 More specifically, IDEA "governs how states and public agencies provide early intervention, special education, and related services to" disabled youth. 3 However, the remedies available under IDEA are limited. Common remedies for violations of IDEA include tuition reimbursement, compensatory education, and attorney's fees. 4 Because monetary compensation is not available under IDEA, disabled students often have to bring a claim under other federal statutes, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") in order …

Legal Philosophy For Lawyers In The Age Of A Political Supreme Court, Patrick J. Borchers Jan 2023

Legal Philosophy For Lawyers In The Age Of A Political Supreme Court, Patrick J. Borchers

Tennessee Law Review

Legal Philosophy has long been concerned with the question of what brands a norm as legal, as opposed to a non-legal norm of justice or morality. This central question has occupied the attention of philosophers and lawyers for centuries. Roughly speaking, the Naturalist school contends that legal norms are inextricably intertwined with norms of morality and justice (and in its strongest form contends that law-like pronouncements that are immoral or unjust are not fully laws), while the Positivist school argues that a social construct (often called the Rule of Recognition) brands selected norms as legal, and thus legal norms may …
