That is unquestionably the law.
Are you aware that political affiliation is a protected class in California? Same as race and sex. What law are you referring to when you make such a bold, yet ignorant statement such as the one above?

Private companies cannot be forced to post content that they determine to be a violation of their terms of service.
No but the following can happen:
They could be required to explicitly specify what section of the terms of service were violated.
Their enforcement of their terms of service could be subject to independent audit.
If the terms of service are not updated within a certain timeframe they could be rendered void.

Not so we don't have to read your bullshite but to give you a taste of what you are rooting for. And to watch you cry about it and not realize it's your own doing.

President Trump's legal team is arguing that congress can't get a private organization (big tech) to do something it isn't allowed to do.

No, I am not. I did the most minimal research and it appears to be a workplace law...meaning employers/employees. Wouldn't apply here, but I'm open to the fact that maybe because you have Ca in you handle maybe you know something I'm missing.
Also, are you the "bedrooms of bedding" guy?

John Coale, lawyer for DJT, was just on War Room.
Contact America First Policy Institute if you want to join class action lawsuit.
11th circuit is conservative and SCOTUS Thomas presides over it.

LOL!! And these lawsuits will go NOWHERE.
But the hilarious part of this will be that his brainwashed and cowardly supporters, 90% that post on this board, will most probably donate to his legal fund and get ZILCH in return

And what are you getting in return for voting for biden? Higher gas prices and a loss of energy independence? More illegal immigration and a crisis at the border? Advancing of china and Russian policy and property? Promoting of CRT and indoctrination in America? Are you happy with this? Yeah, you probably are. Idiot.

Platform?
Yes, I've read the law many times. They use the term interactive computer service to describe what we call platforms.
The actual relevant portion of the law:
quote:
These services offer users a great degree of control over the information that they receive, as well as the potential for even greater control in the future as technology develops. (3) The Internet and other interactive computer services offer a forum for a true diversity of political discourse, unique opportunities for cultural development, and myriad avenues for intellectual activity.
These descriptions advise us that Twitter, Facebook and YouTube are not interactive service providers , as no reasonable person would use these descriptions for those companies

It is almost the identical argument, sophomore.
The 1934 Communications Act gave ATT the rights to monopoly in exchange for serving the public good.
By 1974, the consideration of the public good had obviously been abandoned by ATT. It was Nixon’s justice department that brought suit.
Special privileges and exemptions granted by the government bring special responsibilities and requirements.
You are just flat wrong.

Trumps' lawsuits (at least the Facebook and Twitter ones I read) do not allege equal protection violations. He only alleges First Amendment violations in that the private companies, in their capacity as state actors, violated the President's right to free speech by not letting him use their services as he sees fit.
It's pretty amusing. He even worked in a nod to the anons' penchant for calling things they don't like Pedos (as much as one can against a corporate entity) by citing to allegations of "child sexual abuse materials" being distributed on his preferred, but denied, platforms.

I’m old enough to remember when Olbermann used to be semi-sane.
Relying on him now is almost a litmus test for identifying troglodytes…

Catiger85 is a very smart California lawyer who went to a very prestigious law school but he’s yet to tell us how political affiliation as a protected class operates for California companies outside of the employer-employee and housing context.
That’s not to mention the supremacy clause argument of whether Section 230 would trump California state law even if there was a finding Big Tech was censoring on political affiliation alone and not on the substance of individual posts relative to the terms of service.
