I'm thinking maybe we could rework Section 230 so that if an internet platform wanted Section 230 protection they would have to show that they have systems in place to filter out content that is deemed too dangerous - with "too dangerous" to be spelled out with some precision in the legislation changing Section 230.

Yeah, that's gonna work wonders. We only have prior restraints on speech when we want to censor really bad stuff.

So, they spell out in the legislation that endorsing violence and sedition are unlawful.

And then two years later the republicans are back in power and they define any online speech calling for protection of civil liberties (other than the 2nd amendment) as sedition and then selectively enforce it everywhere except 8kun, Breitbart and whatever Trump picks up to replace Twitter.

Good idea!
