Doubt it. If you upload child porn to Instagram and they distribute it - it's still an Instagram problem, AFAIK.
- dragonwriter 3y agoChild porn is not a copyright issue, so the DMCA safe harbor for UGC doesn't apply, and its criminal, so the Section 230 safe harbor doesn't apply, so its very much not an applicable example as to whether use of UGC in other contexts is a way of leveraging safe harbor protections for content, whether for copyright or more generally.

- fragmede 3y agoAs long as Instagram follows the DMCA and takes it down, they're covered by Section 230, do I don't know if it's a problem per se.
- whywhywhywhy 3y agoIt literally/legally isn't and is one of the reasons US is king for hosting services like IG. Read Section 230.
