While this may seem like a good idea I have my doubts. Getting rid of that immunity would lead to massive censorship and we would be at the top of the list.

There are ways to target Facebook/Twitter i.e apply it to companies with a turnover of at least a billion dollars.

That catches them but leaves smaller operators alone.

Nonsense.
What do you call the massive censorship of conservatives and Republicans that Twitter and Facebook are doing right now, including today's massive blocking of the Hunter Biden corruption story?

You might notice what is going on right now.

The FReepaton?

Since FR does not sell advertising space the rules are different.

If Facistbook wants to rely on free will donations and not sell advertising space they are free to do so. They will then be able to control content to their evil little hearts content.

We're already being heavily censored. They're all acting as publishers, not merely platforms.
