How a law that shields big tech is now being used against it
The lawsuit, filed by Ethan Zuckerman, a public policy professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, is the first to use Section 230 against a tech giant in this way, his lawyers said. It is an unusual legal maneuver that could turn a law that typically protects companies like Meta on its head. And if Zuckerman succeeds, it could mean more power for consumers to control what they see online.
