What will constitute censorship and actionable editorializing

In a post CDA 230 world?
Will it be an admin of a site deleting a thread simply because he doesn’t like the topic or the poster who created it?
How will we determine damages?
Will board ownership be liable for the actions of their volunteer moderators or will the moderators be personally liable?
It’s going to be a strange new world soon

Will you have to post a bond to be a volunteer moderator?
Who will underwrite that bond for your (presumed) personal liability for the editorial and now actionable decisions you make?
Is it even worth the risk at that point? Will non-corporate owned sites be able to afford the staffing and insurance for paid moderators under the course and scope umbrella?

Would an actionable editorial decision that lead to a lawsuit give rise to an unmasking of all volunteer moderators?
Would the predilections and prejudices of those moderators then be imparted onto the site itself?

Do terms of service create a contract between the user and the owner?

It's all a shitshow, and it'll be a dumpster fire if the dems win the White House. Especially if they hold one of the houses, too.

Does the cost of litigation defending suits without a 230 defense to the suit serve as a barrier to entry for forums trying to get off the ground?
In trying to protect speech do we send up stifling forums for speech and funneling internet speech to silos of agreement or deep enough pockets?

Karla, NIH, any of the smart guys?
No thoughts here?
Probably still researching the Roger Stone trial and poring through your highlighted and earmarked copy of the Mueller Report for that deleted thread

Hmm. Openly daring the admins to hit him with the banhammer.

Seems to be a political topic in light of the recent EO regarding social media?
Seems pertinent in light of a thread of mine being deleted earlier with no explanation of what board rule I broke.
But a great segue into a larger conservation about what message boards look like in the future

Yeah, you came across as trolling to me. Not one of your better efforts, mind you, but I didn’t get the deletion, either. I’ve seen more obvious troll threads stay up.

It wasn’t a troll thread. Predictably not many addressed the substance and instead turned to personal attacks, but I somehow how got penalized for pointing that out.
The Parscale guy and a few others addressed the OP but we all got punished for _____.
But it does raise a larger question about what a post-230 world looks like.
Should I be able to sue tigerdroppings for the editorial decision their agent made in deleting the thread and get past an initial exception due to their being no Section 230 immunity (motion to dismiss the suit before it gets started)?
I think that’s a dangerous and slippery slope to go down, but it seems we have some here who want to see what that looks like

I am partial to the argument that the first amendment and how it has already been interpreted by the courts makes 230 redundant and unnecessary. I think that if it is revoked it won't end up mattering in the long run, because the supreme court will basically rule that the first amendment provides those protections already.

So is it antitrust that we can hope levels the playing field somewhat?

You’ll just have to excuse me. You’re a known quantity.

Knock yourself out. See how far it gets you.

And just like that...your thread’s back up.
With a lock on it. But back up, nevertheless.
