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).
That makes a lot of sense. And yeah, editing someone's words as if they said it is illegal and more than that violates the moral law I adhere to. Thanks for helping me learn new stuff.
