This will lead to more censorship. Without immunity, they will censor with reckless abandon.
With immunity, they already censor with reckless abandon.
How do you figure without immunity they will censor even more?
I'm telling you. Once they can be sued for the content posted by their users, there will not be anything allowed.
Sorry friend, what we have in place now with section 203 is broke.
It needs to be trashed and the legislature needs to go back to the drawing board, and this time without loopholes.
I am not saying it isn't broken. I'm saying watch what you wish for. When social media companies no longer have immunity from the content posted on their site, they will have an excuse to ban everything they want. If you cannot see that, I cannot help you.
Already they censor the things conservatives want to share. The censorship is one sided. That is the problem.
Because then it will become legal for them to curate content out, based on State, County, and Municipal laws, ordinances, rules, mandates, etc. It's a very slippery slope. It may be a publicly traded company, but it's still considered a private company regarding U.S. Constitutional protections. It's not the company's fault that nefarious actors use it for nefarious things. Yes, it could be argued that Zuckerberg is nefarious himself, and it would be true, but good luck proving it in a court of law that will hear that argument. There is no verifiable proof as of yet, only conjecture and supposition. And he'd destroy that argument in court.
You may not like it, but the various social media companies have this protection in place because it violate their rights under the law. And it's a very slippery slope from what we have now, however frustrating to is, to what China is doing, or Russia, or any other truly despotic country. We think our leaders are despots, but we don't know the true meaning of the word here in America.
You think the censorship is bad now? Remove their S230 protections and then watch how fast they drop the banhammer on everything. All in the name of "safety" and "security" for a "decent society."
It’s already legal for them to do that under section 203.
Well if you ban everything, there's no social left .
Perfect
That's the point. They will censor until their own platforms are totally unappealing to normies.
Now if only there were a free speech platform the normies could migrate to...
Don’t understand why this down voted so heavily. I like to see the devils advocate position. It is oddly convenient that they haven’t had serious section 230 talks until truth social dropped. I definitely don’t know how to feel about this one after seeing the law only used to fuck anyone right leaning repeatedly.
