We know the trick. This does not stop big tech, it helps them kill their competition, because alt-tech cannot survive in an envrionment where they can be sued for 3rd party content. BigTech is the only ones that can deal with the legalities of posting 3rd party content.

They're never going to stop trying to kill the internet.

How will they attract users when editors ("moderators") have to approve of every post individually before it's published?

Most users will prefer instant unmoderated content over endless "pending approval"s.

There won't be any "instant unmoderated content" as without 230 the service hosting it is liable for those posts.

No it's not, not any more than your phone company is liable for content you send. Section 230 just lets them have it both ways.

If what you say is true 230 would have never been needed in the first place. It was the rare case of govenment being proactive. What do you mean both ways? Oh the publisher vs platform thing? does not apply to 230, in fact, those words aren't even used.
