Do you think Section 230 needs to be changed?

👍 Yes (46%) – "Social media companies are a hotbed of misinformation that can lead to fatal consequences (see role of FB in Rohingya genocide in Myanmar). Making them liable for user-generated content on their platform may reduce some of the inflammatory content."

• "There is too much of a left slant on social media, the dem solution would make it worse and the status quo is dividing our country. Ultimately I don't trust social media to take off disinformation versus things they disagree with. Their track record on the Hunter Biden Laptop, Ivermectin, vaccine "misinformation", lab leak theory, and they don't remove hate crime hoaxes and other divisive, false things."

👎 No (40%) – "The internet is a special place that up till now has largely been safe from the idiosyncracies of politics. Every politician-driven attempt to change the way it works stems from some desire to leverage it for power for that politician's party. You've already ruined our government and social systems, leave us the internet!"

• "Throughout history, the governments who squelch unpopular speech pretty much never end up looking good. While content on social media can be ugly, contentious, divisive, egregious, and extreme, allowing government controls on private companies is a terribly slippery slope. Forcing a company to "print" what it disagrees with, AND allowing them to be sued if someone's feelings are hurt over what they publish are both dangerous alleys to wander down."

🤷‍♀️ Unsure/other (14%) – "It feels like Section 230 gives Big Tech companies too much leeway to do whatever they like, but I'm afraid that changing Section 230 would fundamentally alter the way we communicate on the Internet – and not in a good way."
