I follow some advocacy groups that are pushing hard for 230 protections to be repealed because Pornhub has quite a bit of child porn and rape videos and they want Pornhub held accountable. So there’s a big push from that sector (anti-human trafficking advocacy groups).
I know Dan Bongino is against repealing section 230 bc he thinks it will ultimately hurt free speech more than it helps, but ffs, SOMETHING needs to be done!!
Edit: I don’t know that anyone necessarily wants 230 done away with completely, I kind of worded it poorly; it needs changed to remove some of the vagueness that these sites are exploiting, but regardless, these sites in general need to be exempted from 230 protections.
I’m not disagreeing with you, but then what is the solution bc it’s NOT being enforced?? Dorsey & Zuckerberg have testified and lied multiple times to congress yet nothing happens. Leaving it as is and saying it just needs enforced doesn’t seem to be working...
I kind of said that incorrectly, they don’t necessarily want it repealed completely, but do want sites exempted (EARN IT Act legislation). Many say 230 just needs fixed to change the last qualifier of “other questionable content” bc this is the part being exploited to silence conservatives, Trump, or anything not approved by the new world order.
The problem is twofold: Twitter and Youtube are removing stuff that is, for all intents and purposes, harmless but just goes against their ideology while pornhub is allowing all content without any policing and this is allowing child porn and rape videos on their site, which SHOULD be removed.
Thats why Digg/Reddit/etc started as link aggregators. They never actually hosted any content (they do now because fuck it there isn't any enforcement)
We already know these "platforms" have the tools and motives to "deplatform" anyone at any time, so they always have been able to stifle free speech. Worries me that all these idiots don't see that.

230 doesn't need to be removed, it needs to be enforced. Only platforms are protected, not publishers.
This is the correct answer.

There's one man ultimately responsible for enforcing the laws in this country.
And he's backed by the people.
Nobody that I've heard wants 230 removed, just these censorious platforms taken off then
liberals: End legal bailouts to oil industries destroying our forrests and oceans.
also liberals: how dare you end legal bailouts to big tech so they can just do whatever they want.
Really he's already got an executive order to handle this.
The 2018 executive order.
If youtube has investment dollars from China or any influence from China (they have both) then we should assume this is foreign election interference.

This isn't fucking hard.
