Reposted from last bread. Maybe some quotes from the ACLU would get their attention.
A good 2013 article from the ACLU. It has lots of quotes for memes about Article 230.
If Section 230 is stripped of its protections, it wouldn't take long for the vibrant culture of free speech to disappear from the web. - ACLU
Without Section 230's safe harbor to ensure that websites aren't legally on the hook for content created by their users, websites would be responsible for policing every user-submitted word for possible criminal violations — which simply isn't feasible. -ACLU
[Currently] Section 230 is directly responsible for the free, messy, uncensored, and often brilliant culture of online speech. -ACLU
By prohibiting most state civil or criminal liability for something somebody else writes or posts, it created the single most important legal protection that exists for websites, bloggers, and other internet users. -ACLU
Under Section 230, a website can provide a platform for all speech without worrying that if one of its online users posts something stupid, critical, defamatory, or unlawful, the website itself can be held responsible. -ACLU
In short, Section 230 makes sure that any website that offers individuals a place to speak — comment threads, group forums, consumer reviews, political meet-ups, you name it — doesn't have to police its users to make sure every post is within the letter of state and federal law. -ACLU
If their proposal were to pass, it would mean that every website on the Internet could be subject to legal liability for violations of an unfathomable number of state laws. -ACLU
No website owner in her right mind would offer an uncensored user forum knowing that the website could be investigated, shut down, or charged with a felony just for one user's speech. -ACLU
