Ah, to be Twitter. Can control anything it publishes, profit from anything it wants — and not be held responsible for any of it.Such is a unanimous ruling by the Federal Election Commission, which found Twitter violated no law by censoring The Post’s factual report about the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop. Stating that, in its view, “Twitter is likely a press entity,” the FEC said that the social media network’s “activities fall within our press exemption.” That’s going to be news to Twitter and Facebook, which enjoy the benefits of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act

Ok courts. Can you be a news publisher, as the FEC has stated and a non-publisher platform, protected by section 230 of the CDA - at the same time?

Common sense would say to cancel all 230 protections from companies who censor anything they don’t agree with.

If the majority of people now on the Twitters of this world closed their accounts, they'd render them powerless. Easy peasy.

If you dislike and disagree with Twitter and Facebook, don't use them. Let them die. But you won't, because you are addicted to them. I have several conservative friends who have basically admitted to this. And they also use the excuse of "well, that is how I keep in touch with friends and family". I ask them, "well, how did you keep up with them before the internet and smartphones?" Silence.

El Rushbo pointed out long ago that the folks at Twitiot had many FAKE accounts that were in fact bot repeaters to make it appear that It alone was a true measure of public opinion. This is going to make it a law unto itself and little more than a platform to control the direction of the nation's political direction and government policy. Conservatives need to stay off.
