What you need to know about Section 230, the controversial part of an internet law Trump targeted in a new executive order

It includes a variety of guidelines for regulation of "interactive computer services," which, today, includes social-media companies like Twitter and Facebook. says that "no provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider."

The section also gives social-media sites the ability to regulate content, such as hate speech, on their platforms: shall be held liable on account of any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected.

While sites like Twitter and Facebook have been hesitant to regulate speech on their platforms, they have removed or flagged content if it explicitly violates their policies, such as policies against inciting violence. For example,Why we're talking about Section 230 again The order directs federal agencies to alter Section 230 and change the way they interpret and enforce Section 230,It would direct social-media sites to lose their Section 230 protections if they discriminate against users, restrict access to the platform without a fair hearing, or take action that conflicts with their terms of service.
