From what I understand 230 defends Twitter and Facebook against being held accountable for the contents posted by users. Lets say they remove it what impact it is going to have?
Other then call for violence directly it is going to be defended by the 1'st Amendment so I do not see it hurting this giant corporations in a big way.
On top of that they are going to be allowed a time of X to remove calls to violence on their site, similar with how EU did.
What am I missing here?
Thank you Justice Thomas for getting the ball rolling, but I don't fuckin' trust the FCC as far as I can throw them.
FCC is saying they will allow the civil courts to act as a check. They follow similar practice with traditional media companies. They don't have a panel that decides whether defamation or false claims were made, they simply allow individuals to pursue civil action and let that be the deterrent to bad behavior.
