So, do you think it is right that craigslist decided to pull the personal section?
They were certainly aware there was prostitution there, some of which was the result of sex-trafficking. So, by your reasoning, they should do something about it. Which would support just removing the section.
However, the wording of this law suggests that less extreme measures, such as an automatic filtering system and user-report functionality, would leave craigslist liable.
Note that the personal section was (probably) not majority prostitution. It was a place where prostitution would happen.
It seems to me the situation were different if the personal section was 50% prostitution or more.
Question is, does section 230 still protect those who operate a site where 50% of user-generated content is illegal?
Because if not, I don't see how this law is necessary.
