Exactly right. Let platforms censor whomever they want, but do not tolerate payment processors cutting off platforms just because they support free speech. There is no grounds for Visa or MasterCard to deny services to providers of a free speech platform.
Section 230 was meant to prevent censorship. If platforms censor they are publishers and do not qualify for section 230.
Yes. And it does exactly that.
If you hold a platform accountable for every dumb fuck who posts whatever faggot shit they can come up with, the platform will not allow anything to be posted without review. The only content creators that would be allowed to post anything will be those pre approved by the platforms legal team.
Section 230 does not trump a business owner's rights to enforce their own ToS in any way they see fit. Nor does censoring content on a business' platform/property make that business a publisher. That's fucking retarded. Learn what words mean.
