Episode notes
- In 1995, a New York State Court ruled that Prodigy, an internet service provider, was responsible for what was posted on its message boards, and as a result, Prodigy had to devote enormous resources to taking down potentially problematic content.
- In response, Congress passed Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which says that providers and users of interactive computer services (like Twitter) cannot be held liable for the content posted by other information content providers.
