Online Firearm Sales: Obstacles to Effective Policy Enforcement

Even if your platform prohibits the sale of firearms, your users may be engaged in the sale of weapons without your knowledge.

In this presentation, regulatory expert Andy Bayley will:

- Review the current regulatory landscape of weapons as it relates to online sales

- Talk about enforcement rules and rapidly changing trends in the weapons space

- Show examples of problematic weapons sales and give tips on how to avoid them
