> Problems of Access and Entry (11:00-12:30): This panel will address the

> markets and the ongoing debates about net neutrality regulation and
> antitrust oversight.
>
> Problems of Fact and Value (1:45-3:15): This panel will consider the roles

> harassment, and hate; the roles they might play in mitigating those
> problems; and the feasibility and desirability of more (or different) legal

>
> Coding Regulation vs. Regulating Code (3:30-5:00) This panel will explore
