What is Section 230?
Section 230 is a part of federal legislation passed more than 20 years ago. It runs only 26-words long—short and to the point. But it has had an outsize affect on life as we know it.
They are the “26 words that created the Internet,” says Jeff Kossett, a cybersecurity law professor at the U.S Naval Academy and one of the foremost experts on Section 230.
Most fundamentally, Section 230 provides immunity to social media companies like Facebook and Twitter TWTR -2.2% against being sued over the content on their site. This allows them to operate and flourish without needing to moderate content.
“Section 230 set the legal framework for the internet that we know today that relies heavily on user content rather than content that companies create. Without Section 230, companies would not be willing to take so many risks,” Kosset says.
Lots of talk about FB and TWAT censorship today:
Facebook & Twitter have exponentially driven the views and search, for the explosive Biden emails, by illegally trying to squash it. So thank you! BTW this is the beginning of the end for Big-tech!

It’s time to break up Big Tech. Their total bias and flagrant suppression of information can’t stand in America.
Their display today is more reminiscent of dictatorial Communist China than anything ever seen in the United States before.

Twitter and Fakebook have officially ushered us into the book burning stage. These are anti-competitive monopolies actively engaged in collusion and election interference. There’s no going back now. This is NOT normal.
