What are they going to do? Censor some more like they already haven't?

Facebook and Twitter are not the only social media platforms on the planet.

Right, and that’s exactly why they want 230 removed. Because it protects startups as is and can incubate their future destruction.

  • What damages big tech will be found liable for, they can afford.
  • Startups won’t be able to compete with big tech AI, which can largely remove or prevent actual illegal content (Pedo, etc) without expensive moderation and personnel which startups can’t afford
  • Big tech or activist organizations can sabotage startups with either false flag content, or sampling bias.

And of course they will blatantly censor either way, with or without it 230, because even with it now they get away with it, but without 230 small players won’t, so big tech will have a blank check in terms of no competition

We have also seen zuckerberg and co literally buy judges so they know they are largely going to be insulated from seriously destructive rulings anyways, and will just pay off what is ruled against them like a parking ticket.

All we need to do with 230 is enforce it, so they will be held liable for shit because they don’t qualify for its protections anyways. That’s it. Startups need 230 and they shouldn’t be held liable for content. Without 230 TD dies.
