    How many times do we have to say there has been no proposed change to hold twitter accountable for what you and I tweet?

    It has to do with 230 protecting twitter from “their” content they produce. Currently, it is still shielded under 230. It is 100% a loophole.

    You think you are making a point, but you aren’t. No one is asking Twitter to be liable for what I tweet.

    There are a number of cases specific to lawsuits on twitters actions (not third party postings) and they have been thrown out or lost citing 230.

    nope.

    if twitter posts something illegal, maybe classified info, or child porn, or terrorist threats or whatever, they are responsible

    if by "actions" you mean unfair bannings and such, thats not the same thing, and clearly they should have that freedom. stop trying to be the gestapo

    But not libel suits.

    They fact checked trump wrong and it affects the election. He has no legal action to bring a civil suit to them under 230 because they are still protected.

    You can stop being obtuse and bringing up arguments no one here is making.

    to tell them they cannot fact check trump is clearly and HUGELY unconstitutional

    whether you think it affects the election, or even if it actually does has nothing to do with anything. we are all free to affect the election. thats why we even discuss it

    Are you drunk? Who the fuck said they couldn’t?

    I said when they are wrong, there is no legal action to hold them to account, like he has with a publisher......

    again, they can be held responsible for things they post.

    the things they cannot be held responsible for is what YOU post

    Actually they aren’t currently. That is the problem. 230 is being abused.

    So stop with the things no one is talking about.
