I don't understand this "can't have it both ways" argument. Moderation on social media is a good thing, it would be less usable without it. It's also good that people can post their thoughts to the world without a bunch of pre-approval by platforms to make sure it's legal (which would be nearly impossible to do well anyway). I also don't see any reason why platforms should be liable for things their users post. The person who posted it should be to blame, as they have the most direct responsibility for it. Overall I see section 230 as mostly beneficial without much downside at all, and the results have been incredibly positive. Courts shouldn't decide cases based on the viability of a business model, but we can certainly write laws for those reasons.
