The social media trial underway in LA is only one of the major challenges to Section 230 that has recently gained traction. It really feels like a dam is about to break https://www.platformer.news/the-infinite-scroll-goes-on-trial/

@Casey I sure hope so but we’re dealing with externally slippery individuals so I’m not holding my breathe
@Casey Brian Reed @ Question Everything has an excellent series of reporting on this topic. Like everything, repealing sec. 230 has many upsides but it will affect aspects of the internet you find helpful as well. It’s complicated but we can find a solution, if we want to. Thanks for bringing attention to this
@sololikehan love Brian but worry he's not considering the downsides enough! I'm in favor for limited liability for 'defective product'-style complaints, but want to maintain strong protections for liability from speech-related harms. It's a tough needle to thread but feels really high stakes to me!
@Casey and the water flows to #forkiverse ?
