Thanks to "Contempt of Court" anybody can go to jail, even if they're not found liable for the presented case. But more on point, we're discussing modification of how laws are interpreted. If someone can be held civilly liable, why can't they be held criminally liable if the "recommended" content breaks criminal laws (CSAM, for example)? There's nothing that prevents this interpretation from being considered in a criminal case.

Section 230 already doesn't apply to content that breaks federal criminal liability, so CSAM is already exempted. Certain third-party liability cases will still be protected by the First Amendment (no third-party liability without knowledge of CSAM, for example) but won't be dismissed early by Section 230.
