Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill would completely eliminate Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934, a federal law that has protected online platforms and websites from legal liability for content posted by their users since 1996. Currently, Section 230 shields companies like social media platforms, search engines, and other websites from being sued over third-party posts while still allowing them to moderate offensive content. Repealing this protection would expose these platforms to lawsuits for user-generated content, potentially making them liable for defamation, harassment, and other claims. The bill would also make conforming changes to other federal laws that reference Section 230, such as laws related to obscenity, trademark, and financial crimes. The changes would take effect two years after the bill becomes law, giving platforms time to adjust their operations before the legal protections expire.
