Interestingly, The term “interactive computer service” has the meaning given the term in section 230(f)(2) of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 230(f)(2)):
The term "interactive computer service" means any information service, system, or access software provider that provides or enables computer access by multiple users to a computer server, including specifically a service or system that provides access to the Internet and such systems operated or services offered by libraries or educational institutions.
It appears that a P2P app would be off the hook, at least for now, because there is no "server" in the picture.
- r3trohack3r 7y ago> any information service, system, or access software provider that provides or enables computer access by multiple users to a computer server Wouldn't that mean every node on a P2P network would be considered a client, server, and interactive computer service? Another way of interpreting this, I think, is that everyone participating in a DHT or scuttlebutt network would be responsible for every other user's behavior on that network.
