From when Reddit got into trouble for doing the same thing. You can do a complete deletion, but when you alter others’ speech it revokes the section 230 protections granted to the site.
I haven't and have no capabilities to edit your words under your comment. My removing your comment and replying with your argument is not against the law.
That’s correct (and I’m totally fine with that). I bet the removal of editing is a direct result of this.
Sedition 230 protects a site (a platform) from the legal responsibility for the statements/actions of its users by delineating a barrier between content hosting and content production. Hosting means “letting people talk on the platform,” and then the platform only has the legal responsibility to remove illegal contents as it is notified of them. If a site decides to edit something that someone else posted, it technically revokes those protections because it signals that the site itself (or a representative of the site) is now “publishing” any and all content uploaded to it (it’s “assenting” to the content).
YOU VIOLATE SECTION 230 IF YOU EDIT OTHERS’ COMMENTS.
It’s literally illegal for you to do that. Keep that in mind in the future, ash queen.
What is that from?

I'm trying to read up on this. Tbd. I can also chime Perun if you'd like his input.
