What is the Digital Entrepreneur Project?

From tutorial videos, to independent art and music, to recipe blog posts and to handmade goods—if you can dream it, there’s a Digital Entrepreneur out there making a business out of it. The Internet threw open doors for U.S.-based digital entrepreneurs to reach people all over the world, and now you no longer need a television or radio show, a brick-and-mortar store, or a book deal to have an audience and a customer base.

But policymakers often discuss changing the law in ways that could make it harder for Internet companies to host this kind of content. Lawmakers want to rein in large tech companies, but the legislation they’re considering could inadvertently make it harder for Digital Entrepreneurs to make and share their work on websites.
