The Senate is considering repealing Section 230, the law that protects platforms from lawsuits over user comments.
Without the law, platforms might decide to just block all controversial content. Reddit without memes? TikTok without political satire?
A law professor explores the implications:

@TheConversationUS Instead of resisting the fascism, they're going to anticipate or further it? can we please get new politicians before the midterm, while we still have a country???
@acm_redfox What? No. That's not at all what this is about.
Anyway, we get the representatives that we vote for.
We get what we vote for.
We should probably stop reelecting the same people that keep failing us though.
