Online platforms would lose legal protection for content posted by users.
This bill would end a law that protects online platforms from being sued for content posted by their users or for their decisions to remove content. If passed, platforms like social media sites could face more lawsuits, potentially changing how they operate and what content they allow. These changes would take effect two years after the bill becomes law.
Today, online platforms generally cannot be sued for content posted by their users or for their decisions to remove content. If this bill passes, that legal protection would be removed. This means platforms could be held responsible for user-generated content and their moderation choices, starting two years after the law is enacted.
