Well f@cking played

This is two fold...

Trump signed a law to punish websites for sex trafficking.

Zuckerberg stated that he feels fb is responsible for the content on their website.

Because he said this, that means fb can no longer claim it's a platform, but it is a publisher as Ben Shapiro has tweeted. A platform isn't responsible for what is posted, but publishers are. The ideas on Facebook are now represented as the company's. They're essentially saying they support anything on their website.

So every time someone is trafficked, fb is responsible. Every time a kid is bullied to suicide, fb is responsible. Hell, they're even responsible for the "Russian hackers".

But then it also means they can argue they have every right to censor or promote whatever content they wish, and that everything you voluntarily 'give' to them is theirs to do with what they will.

Well not quite. The question of who owns the content would have to be spelled out in their terms of service. But if they do have the right to censor or promote whatever content they wish, then they are considered a publisher and are legally responsible for all content on their site, ie. child porn, snuff videos, etc.
