Interesting.

One note about 230. Section 230 allows for online "platforms", which are exempt from the legal reprecussions of the content hosted on a site. The purpose is that sites which host third party content (social media, for example) do not have a capacity to police every bit of content on their sites, hence, they are platforms. The caveat being that a platform cannot editorialize the content on their site. They can only remove illegal content. The problem is, 230 is used by social media corps like Facebook in order to skate by the legal system, while still editorializing the content on their site (ie. censorship).

Section 230 seems like a good piece of legislation, to me. The problem is, the whole "cannot editorialize" piece is not enforced.
