But there are alot of laws that favor tech and most of the tech billionaires take lots of credit for winning with a stacked deck. And call for less regulation. - sales tax exemptions for ecommerce. - green credits - section 230 - lack of stricter anti trust

- ch4s3 4y agoSection 230 was just a carve out in the mostly overturned Communications Decency Act to allow for moderation. It isn't special protection, it clarifies that for the purposes of some pearl clutching censorship laws that moderating and hosting comments doesn't incur the liability of having said or published the thing in question. The rest of that law was basically whole sale tossed out by the Supreme Court for being prior restraint on speech. Section 230 is a red herring pushed by know nothing culture warriors.
