Fact or Fiction? The Truth About Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act

Sex trafficked by a predator who contacted her on Instagram.  

Coerced into sending sexually explicit images by pedophiles on Kik. 

Groomed by a convicted predator on Snapchat who eventually shows up to her home.

These are stories of minors who have been exploited at the hands of social media. And in all of these cases, the tech platforms involved faced no accountability for their role in actively facilitating this exploitation. 

That’s courtesy of 

Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.

Despite the 

active role

 that many social media platforms play in facilitating the exploitation of children, Section 230 grants them

 broad immunity from being held liable.

Click below to read some of the myths they are pushing and why these arguments are void of merit.
