Online liability protections [for social media companies] have outlived usefulness, top lawmakers say

Hmmm... Making social media companies liable for what users post. I'm all for making them take a more active involvement in what's going on but that would open up anyone hosting stuff to a world of liability...

They've discovered that civil liability will circumvent the 1st Amendment protections preventing them from regulating free speech directly.
