That is incorrect. It was not liable because it didn't moderate (i.e., was a dumb-pipe distributor) and because it had no reason to know of the defamatory content.
That latter piece is fact-intensive and case-specific. Which means expensive litigation in every case. Which is not remotely the same as a liability shield.
