Inside Counsel at Scale
Notas do episódio
What does it mean to lead the legal function at a company operating at the scale of Meta? C.J. Mahoney, Meta's Chief Legal Officer and formerly General Counsel of Microsoft and Deputy U.S. Trade Representative, joins TalksOnLaw to discuss the wave of litigation alleging that social-media products are addictive and harmful to young users, the role of Section 230 and the First Amendment in Meta's defense, and the FTC's challenge to the Instagram and WhatsApp acquisitions.
Mahoney also explains how AI is changing work inside legal departments, and why he expects it to put more pressure on the staffing-heavy law-firm model than on in-house teams, shifting the value of outside counsel toward strategic judgment on the hardest questions.
This episode is part of New Law Order, a TalksOnLaw limited series and standalone podcast co-hosted by Joel Cohen and John Morley, whose scholarship focuses on the structure and economics of law firms.
