Because section 230 protects everyone. There is no limitation in the law that says "if you have x% market share, you are not covered under the law."
My point WRT Prodigy/AOL, etc. was that there certainly wasn't the intent to exclude the large players (which is what you asserted without evidence). In fact, a major impetus for section 230 was the Stratton Oakmont v. Prodigy decision[0].
And so I'll ask you: On what basis do you make the judgement that section 230 wasn't intended to protect everyone?
