Huge difference.

Huge difference to us, but not to the law.

The language in the EO:

"” Sec. 7. Definition. For purposes of this order, the term “online platform” means any website or application that allows users to create and share content or engage in social networking, or any general search engine.”

FR squarely fits, as it does in the Section 230 definitions.

Trump probably wouldn't go after FR but when you start giving the federal government the ability to control political speech just be prepared for when your party is no longer in charge.

Chuckle.
You keep repeating the same thing with the Sec. 7
The EO is not just Sec. 7.
Read the whole EO. Then read it again.
It clearly does not apply to sites like FR.
