Wrong the original bargain was if you act as common carrier and don't censor or comment on things, just like a phone company or electric company, then you are free from being sued for user content.

Internet companies wanted to avoid lawsuits like above and be held as common carriers. So 47 USC 230 was crafted but they lobbied to add protections for them being able to censor some stuff they didn't like as well as being treated as common carrier and thus could not be sued. This is not the original intent of the lawmakers before lobbyist got involved and subverted the whole thing. Now internet companies are TOTALLY publishers and decide what is and isn't fact and what opinion are and are not allowed. If you think Climate Change isn't proven science then you are censored. If you say one race is better than another, again censored. If you think abortion is bad thing, you are censored. If you think the earth is flat you are censored. All Lives Matter or Blue Lives Matter. If you think religion is good or maybe you think religion is bad. It doesn't matter if you are wrong, if the company is a common carrier. It does matter if the company is picking and choosing winners and losers. That is NOT the original agreement.

Mail in voting has tons of fraud and anyone who has worked in vote monitoring has seen it first hand. Here is a book with lots of research and footnotes about problems with voting fraud in the US and more specifically mail in voting fraud. Read it and you will be surprised that anything gets done in the US.

Is that like people who take Zinc & Vitamin C for colds? They say they take it to prevent colds, but what they really mean is the take it so they won't get, as sick for, as long with a cold than if they didn't take it.

Does Joe Biden realize that he won the DNC primary? I mean at one point he thought he was running for the senate in a speech he gave on the presidential campaign trail. LOL

Do you have a source for that comment? Like specifically the court case you mention?

I'm not so sure it is quiet that easy to identify hackers by the their tools anymore given that NSA and CIA have both had their tools/code stolen over the past few years. So you really have no idea who is using those tools these days or modified versions of those tools.

I said from the beginning the data never matched any of the 60 years of data we have for the drug by Lupis patients and malaria patients. I said at the time follow the money and that someone was discrediting it for money and low and behold I was right! No one wants to promote a drug that doesn't have patents. They can't make enough money off it.

If you are curating content then seems to me you are publisher, even if you use AI, because the rules an AI uses are ones programmed in to it.Seems pretty simple to me. Newspapers curate content all the time, nope we aren't publishing that article but yes we will publish that one. Same for TV and radio. Nope won't air that program or content but we will do this other one instead. Curate is exactly what a publisher does.

So if we are only to use double blind studies to treat diseases then we should immediately stop all treatments for syphilis because there are ZERO double blind studies for treatment of syphilis. We use treatments that have been shown to work historically or some might say anecdotally.
If you want to know why this drug is being attacked, just follow the money. There is no money in a drug that has been safely used for over 50 years and no longer is under patent. There is money in new treatments that you can patent though and that threatens those who patent drugs. If people start widely using patent free drugs for a major outbreak that is bad for them.

Because you forget why the US was even founded. Most countries trust or at least accept their governments until they find out they did something crazy. The United States was founded on the distrust of governments and the idea and that any ruling body with enough power would eventually go rogue and couldn't be trusted. It is why the US Constitution says the US federal government is only allowed to do these things and our rights don't come from the government. We had our rights long before the government existed. In Europe a lot of people see it opposite. They see it as these are the rights the government gives us or allows us to have which is completely backwards to the US. This is one of the many reasons why Europe and the US are different.

ISPs and network providers are not in the business of enforcing copyrights and they shouldn't be. If you want to enforce your copyrights then go to court and get a court ruling like was done for years before all this, but they don't want to bother. Copyright holders don't want to spend the money, they just want a cheap way to get other people to do their job.

It's funny that they complain about how standardized tests are biased against low income and disadvantaged students when in fact UC's own system shows that standardized tests give students who are not good at classwork and don't have the best grades and aren't in the top of their class a better chance to get in to college. So basically they are ignoring their own data and findings and saying that is not good enough. Colleges are even known to do reverse discrimination. If you are Asian you need to need score much higher than a Black or Hispanic student would need to score to get accepted.

Why are we paying all this money for a vaccine that doesn't exist or may never exist? We have never ever had a vaccine against RNA viruses. We never got one for SARS it ended up just going away. I think a vaccine for Covid-19 is a long way off, if ever. I seriously doubt they will find one in a year or two. It is just the nature of the science for RNA viruses.

Everyone keeps assuming there is going to be a vaccine for Covid-19 but they don't know or forget or intentionally don't mention that we have never had an RNA virus vaccine ever. Sars never got a vaccine, it ended up just going away. I seriously doubt there is going to be a vaccine for Covid-19 in 1 year, if maybe ever. There certainly won't be a vaccine this fall or winter (2020).

Chuckles, that's not communism that's self interest. I'll help you for free so you help me for free. That has nothing to do with communism. That is called being a decent neighbor and happened a lot in the US decades ago before everyone became self centered and wanted to know what was in it for them, or what have you done for me lately. I know personally in 70's we helped neighbors and they helped us. The 80's less so and by the 90's forget about it. Hell today most people don't even really know all their neighbors.

Communism would be you build me a barn for free and I'll make a newspaper or some other totally unrelated thing for everyone or maybe I can't do anything for others, so just make me a barn because I have the need. That's communism.
