Heads up. Fake conservatives are actively pushing to remove section 230 protections to solidify big tech's monopoly on the internet. Alt-tech has been taking up the slack where twitter, Facebook, Reddit and YouTube have been banning users. Trump's AG, William Barr, has been circulating the idea of removing these protections which shield websites from liability and prosecution for user generated content . Removing these protections will kill all alt tech because they will not be able to afford the costs of policing content. Only Big Tech will have the ability to/and are the only sites currently policing content.
As a sign that this is a serious threat, Paul Singer recently invested heavily in Twitter. On the surface this looks like a conservative trying to undo left leaning bias, but twitter is barely profitable and Singer is known to be a culture capitalist. His move only makes sense if twitter is about to become a monopoly and drastically increase in value.

Also, I have been following AIM4Truth.org (appears to be a Trump shilling site), and they interviewed a guy that was talking about seeing crypto nodes for supporting criminal activity. However such a lawsuit would fail due to section 230 protections. If these protections are removed, crypto is dead.

Section 230 doesn’t protect that. You fundamentally do not understand it.

Craigslist shuts down its personals section
"The legislation, now awaiting President Donald Trump's signature, would create an exception to Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act, which would pave the way for victims of sex trafficking to sue websites that facilitate their abuse."
SESTA was a trial run. Full removal of 230 would be devastating to the internet as we know it. The internet would become the TV of the 21st century. You can watch, but not interact.

YOU FUNDAMENTALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND IT.
Section 230 has absolutely nothing to do with your “right” to post somewhere. It does nothing for you. It protects website owners from legal liability for postings by others on said websites.
If I create a website that says “no pro-jew content can be posted here,” I GET TO DELETE LITERALLY ANYTHING I WANT, ANY TIME I WANT, FOR ANY REASON THAT I WANT AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME. I can delete all pro-jew content on that website. You do not have any right, whatsoever, to post content I do not want on my own website. Section 230 does NOTHING about this.

And you don't understand funcking shit.
I said removing 230 creates monopolies. And what do you think the funcking monopolies are currently doing? Censoring funcking content! And if you don't like the censorship, you go elsewhere. 230 protects those alternatives.
GET A FUCKING BRAIN YOU DIP SHITT.

And you would be wrong. You have no idea what it says.
Magical. This has nothing to do with 230.
There’s nowhere else.
It literally does not. You have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.
YOU FUNDAMENTALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND IT.

You are full of shit. SESTA is a perfect example of what will result. To think that viable alternatives and free speech will thrive without 230 is BS.
What are you? A shill that purchased a boat account or something?

Has nothing to do with 230.
You have no fucking idea what 230 says. It has nothing to do with speech. Sit down and shut up.
Laughing at how illiterate and retarded you are.
“WAAAAAAAAAAAAA MOMMY BAD MAN SAY TRUE THING I NO LIKE HE SHIIIIIIIIIILL”
YOU FUNDAMENTALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND IT.
IT EXPLICITLY SAYS THAT ANYONE CAN CENSOR ANYONE AT ANY TIME FOR ANY REASON AND YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT SAYS THE OPPOSITE OF EVERYTHING YOU ARE CLAIMING. PUT A BULLET IN YOUR SUBHUMAN RETARDED HEAD.
