The following stupid post has been left for documentation and context; insult deleted with apology.
Actually, publishers are responsible for content, because they have editorial powers like deletion, moderation, and so on. The model you and I want is that of a phone company, which is providing the infrastructure with absolutely no responsibility of what goes over the lines. The problem with reddit is that they are a phone-company when it comes to responsibility and a publisher when it comes to editorial privileges. Reddit does not censor Anti-Hillary or Biden-corruption posts because they are required to do so by law. They do that for money. Repealing section 230 is not about burdening them with responsibility, it is about them making a choice:
- have editorial privileges (deletion, etc.) AND be responsible for content
OR
- have no responsibility for content AND have no editorial privilege
