If you made it clear you were being sarcastic, you wouldn't be getting downvoted.
Yes this is what many businesses want you to think. The web isn't for anything in particular besides general communication bound only by the laws beyond the first amendment.
- mcguire 3y agoNeither the First Amendment nor any particular set of laws bind the web generally.
- dingosity 3y agoIf you're commenting on the difficulty of policing the intarwebs, I heartily agree with you. If you're saying CD230 doesn't exist, I encourage you to rejoin consensus reality. But if you're trying to say CD 230 is in need of review, I would heartily agree.
- dingosity 3y agoSarcastic? Not really. But I do see I am violating H. L. Mencken's rule: Never argue with a man whose job depends on not being convinced. I sell to customers who purchase my goods. I'm not trying to sell my company to a VC whose using it to suck up ad dollars. My customers are my users, your customers are VCs.
