“The law, passed in 1996, was designed to prevent internet companies from being treated as publishers and was done in part to allow the internet to flourish.”

“It shields companies that can host trillions of messages, like Facebook and Twitter, from being sued by anyone who is wronged by something someone else has posted.”

“Section 230 protections also allow social media platforms to moderate their content by removing posts that violate the services’ own standards, so long as they are acting in “good faith.”

Big tech and social media has been censoring “controversy” posts or posts that they disagree with because it’s “misinformation.” Well then, why do they censor tweets or posts and label it as “misinformation?” They aren’t responsible and can’t be held liable.
