The US Congress is considering ending internet law Section 230, which protects social media platforms, newspaper comment sections, and other online forums from being liable for content their users post. Critics argue that Section 230's protections are too broad and outdated for successful Big Tech companies. Some lawmakers have proposed a bill to sunset Section 230 entirely, while others are attempting to narrow its scope. The hearing was largely focused on harm to children and alleged over-policing of conservative content. The Social Media Victims Law Center's Matthew Bergman testified before the committee, arguing that while product liability litigation is playing out in court, Congress can help their cause by clarifying that the law isn't intended to protect platforms’ design decisions. Other lawmakers questioned whether new laws were needed for families like Bergman’s clients to prevail, or if cases like his showed existing law could work under existing law.
