One of the first legal challenges to Section 230 was the 1997 case Zeran v. America Online, Inc., in which a Federal court affirmed that the purpose of Section 230 as passed by Congress was "to remove the disincentives to self-regulation created by the Stratton Oakmont decision". Under that court's holding, computer service providers who regulated the dissemination of offensive material on their services risked subjecting themselves to liability, because such regulation cast the service provider in the role of a publisher. Fearing that the specter of liability would therefore deter service providers from blocking and screening offensive material, Congress enacted § 230's broad immunity "to remove disincentives for the development and utilization of blocking and filtering technologies that empower parents to restrict their children's access to objectionable or inappropriate online material." In addition, Zeran notes "the amount of information communicated via interactive computer services is . . . staggering. The specter of tort liability in an area of such prolific speech would have an obviously chilling effect. It would be impossible for service providers to screen each of their millions of postings for possible problems. Faced with potential liability for each message republished by their services, interactive computer service providers might choose to severely restrict the number and type of messages posted. Congress considered the weight of the speech interests implicated and chose to immunize service providers to avoid any such restrictive effect."


It’s Wiki but it works for background info

Huh? Are you pretending to be a Trump supporter now that turned because Trump is oh so bad? I ask because what you said above holds 0 merits. If Trump slaps Twitter that's exactly why his supporters voted for him because they all hate Twitter.

It doesn’t. It’s a bunch of “harmful content” and “community standards” buzzwords that they can define and apply as they see fit


Except for the court rulings that say they can't apply them based on politics. Not if they want to retain their platform protections.

You can't be serious with this shite. Melania is called a whore on twitter, Trump is called a Russian puppet, hell, they were going after the President's son as being autistic for awhile. What the frick do you call that?

Twitter killed my account and the only reason I can figure out is I put the Birmingham Mayor on blast about wearing masks.

You mean the guy who spent 3 years of peddling the biggest conspiracy theory in American politics history (Trump/Russia collusion)? That guy?

That’s protected political speech, not calling someone a murderer.

Has the executive order been published yet? Is it going to have actionable items or just be a sternly worded letter?
