CDA 230: Why You Should Care
Thursday, February 14, 2019
It's Valentine's Day but instead of spending the whole day staring into the eyes of your loved one(s) maybe take a moment to learn about section 230 of the Communications Decency Act: a trash piece of legislation that gives near total immunity to content-hosting websites, allowing for widespread dissemination of revenge porn while simultaneously endangering sex workers from sea to shining sea. How could one measly statute do so much at once?? Why through the brazenly obtuse magic of the United States Congress, of course!
