Supreme Court showdown for Google, Twitter and the social media worldAt the center of two cases to be argued over two days is Section 230, which provides tech companies a legal shield over what users post online. Not just social media, it protects any and every website that has user content. From facebook to a mom and pop site about knitting, if you allow users to comment/post, 230 protects you from being sued because of said posts. Is it crazy to expect an outcome that curtails Musk’s libertarian nonsense? Tell me you know that Hunter Biden is in business with the nephew of Whitey Bulger, James Bulger. BHR

Supreme Court tackles claim that Twitter aided and abetted terrorist attackU.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday considers whether Twitter can be sued for aiding and abetting the spread of militant Islamist ideology in a case concerning a Jordanian citizen killed in a terrorist attack. Establishing causal connectivities and chain of command logistics between a general western social media site and terror events caused by terror cells in Jordan or Levantine nations is a slim picking, and assumes only one causality has relevance. It is just too tendentious, stop. SCOTUS will probably decide that Twitter didn’t do enough to help the terrorists.🤷‍♂️ They won't dare say yes, because that will open the door for lawsuits against websites that aid and abet white racists, and since the majority of SCOTUS are white racists, they don't want to step on their own tongues.
