This is long overdue

I see most people don't understand the consequence of that section of the law...Twitter and other big techs can willfully silence opposition voices and no legal action can be taken against them.

Any body with any shred of reasoning knows Twitter is extremely biased and political.
If they must have the power to censor, in which case they decide what is right or wrong, they must also face the consequences when the wrongly flags someone.

Nobody should have the power over what we should say or shouldn't say...that's what dictators do ...
If this is the only thing the president achieves before he leaves office, then he has won one for freedom of speech

The same people who praise him to high havens and never see anything wrong with his actions are those who think in a super multifaceted society like ours, and its volatility, no moderation should be placed on social media by government.

I guess this action by the president of the worlds biggest democracy amounts to promoting social media freedom.

Smh.

Imagine what would have been buzzing now had an action similar to this been taken by the Nigerian government. Imagine it.

Abeg, who understand the news should come and summarize for us grin

That section 230 is a law which protects Internet platforms, most notably social media and chat rooms for being liable legally for the messages their users send. It makes the distinction between a publisher and a platform for example if Punch newspapers sold notebooks and I planned to bomb third mainland bridge and wrote the plans in the notebook Punch wouldn't be legally liable for being an accessory to terrorism. If Punch however wrote an editorial, not a report, an opinion piece and guide on how to bomb the third mainland bridge the operators of the newspaper would be arrested for being accessories to terrorism.

It was debated previously because Trump, for whatever reason best known to him, wanted to scrap it.

The problem here is that now Twitter will be even more strict with their moderation policies and that affects Trump because anything he posts for example "We will destroy North Korea" or endorsement of attacks on public officials can now be blamed on Twitter and be grounds for them to ban him.



To make the long talk short if I plan to commit a crime on nairaland, Seun and the mods can be arrested because they host the site.

So because it’s Trump if it was Buhari, it’s anti people’s.

You have lost all sense of right and wrong.

That's right! When you start your 2nd term, it is time to cut these left-wing media to size, especially Facebook and Twitter. Then we go after the Big Techs in Silicon Valley pushing Democrat + NWO agenda in the world. Enough is enough, they must be punished for their dirty actions. Send the IRS after the owners of Fake News Democrat media like CNN. Obama did the same thing against Conservative media. Republicans are too docile I swear.

Some people are so cursed that everyday all they think of is how to drag Igbos and Ipob into every matter. Even when they appear unconnected meanwhile the Igbos are busy soaring high in their businesses.


While the fool is busy on nairaland talking nonsense one Igbo guy is busy negotiating to buy his father's compound including his father's grave. When his father's compound is bought he will relocate to under bridge.
