Florida Gov. DeSantis Has Just Signed A Bill Into Law That Would Allow Everyday Floridians To Sue Big Tech Platforms For Monetary Damages

[bripat9643]

To be more precise, members who are running for public office. The law would allow Florida to fine Twitter for banning such members for more than 14 days.

You know that is not the real goal of the legislation, right?

It's pretty obvious what the real goal of the legislation is.

What's that?

 

[meaner gene]

Facebook does. It has said so in court.

And common carriers have the responsibility not to promote dangerous or illegal content or actions.

 

[bripat9643]

They can't discriminate based on idelogy alone, nor should they be allowed to.

Why not? It’s their website.

For the same reason AT&T can not.

Wrong.

Right. They claim to be a "common carrier," short bus. That means they aren't allowed to discriminate.

You keep saying that but you're utterly refusing to quote them saying that.

You're a proven liar and it appears you're reluctant to quote them because you're lying again.

Wrong. I posted the lawsuit where the claimed they were exempt because they were a common carrier.

In which post did you include that?

I think I see why fucking moron didn't respond to this post of mine. Fucking moron, is this the lawsuit of which you speak...?

Harping on irrelevant trivialities is FAUX's favorite tactic. Fucking moron, how did you not understand it's not defamation in any terms? What? Both Libel and Slander are forms of defamation. And neither apply here. Banning a member for violating the terms of service is not defamation...

Here's the lawsuit I am referring to, you fucking douchebag.

Billion-dollar Israeli lawsuit against Facebook thrown out

 

[kaz]

I think some folks didn't like it....what's your point? I am not seeing the connection here. Facebook is free to have requirements of their employees as well. Facebook employees can sue Facebook....just like Kap was free to sue the NFL.

what we however is talking about something different all together. We are talking about consumers being able to sue Facebook. Just like consumers are free to sue the New Yorker, or NY Times....why do you continue to think that Facebook should be immune, be treated differently and get better protections?

Faun screams Republicans suck at every other employee and customer who wears anything red. His boss is fine with that, right Faun?

You poor kazzer, you're delusional. WTF does wearing red have anything to do with anything. As far as my employer, I keep my work separate from my politics.

That isn't an answer to the question.

Give examples of your political demonstrations you do at work. Go ...

 

[meaner gene]

It's even worse than that. Under the new law, if Matt Gaetz posted pictures of his underaged girls involved in sexually explicit acts (child pornography) the social media company could not take them down for 30 days.

Wrong. It doesn't bar media companies from barring photos or vidoes of illegal acts, like child pornography.

Sure it does. If the company can't ban a persons account, meaning it remains active for additional postings, retweets, etc, for 30 days, that means whatever is posted, words, pictures, retweets, etc, can't be stopped for 30 days.

you think AT&T can discriminate? Sorry...https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/47/chapter-5/subchapter-II/part-I

(a)Charges, services, etc.
It shall be unlawful for any common carrier to make any unjust or unreasonable discrimination in charges, practices, classifications, regulations, facilities, or services for or in connection with like communication service, directly or indirectly, by any means or device, or to make or give any undue or unreasonable preference or advantage to any particular person, class of persons, or locality, or to subject any particular person, class of persons, or locality to any undue or unreasonable prejudice or disadvantage.

LOLOLOLOL

So you think Facebook is a common carrier, huh?

Facebook does. It has said so in court.

Not according to you. The lawsuit you posted said they claimed protection under rule 230. They said nothing at all about being a common carrier.

In dismissing the case on 18 May, US District Judge Nicholas Garaufis upheld Facebook’s argument that the company was protected by the Communications Decency Act, which says certain Internet services are not liable for content created by a third party.​

 

[kaz]

There are other factors. When they are silencing one side for political contributions, that is a contribution to the other side, particularly when that is the service they engage in. And the government is providing them with free access to customers at taxpayer expense. And they are taking it. So they should serve anyone who is paying for their business to operate.

That fucking Google shut down Parlor, not even their own competitor, was particularly a flagrant anti-trust action

It's not Parlor and Google didn't shut them down. How many times do you need this explained to you until you learn?

They don't learn. Look at the jumbled, confused mess of an argument some of these idiots are putting out there. They can't keep anything remotely complicated straight.

These guys have had their brains turned to mush by years of being spoon fed right wing tripe.

They did it to themselves and then they get angry at everyone else for not falling for their bullshit.

The guy who keeps failing his anger management classes is worried about people getting "angry." That's classic

Petty political retribution. You all are butthurt because Trump got banned and you want revenge. There's NOTHING else going on here. Except for a bunch of spindly excuses that expose your hypocrisy.

 

[Faun]

Democrats running around screaming free markets! Free markets! Just unbelievable. Literally, as if they care about free markets.

They are just cheering because it's working, Republicans are being silenced.

And dblack doesn't see a problem

it’s not even about free markets. Free markets welcome the exchange of ideas, not censorship.

with that said, facebook is free in a free society to publish the content they want...with that said they should therefore be treated the same as everyone else in that business

Exchange of ideas like football players kneeling during the National Anthem? How did the right like that exchange of ideas?

The football players were only silenced AT WORK. No one silenced them other than that. Or proposed it.

Be more specific about the political protests you do at work

You mean like some are only silenced on Twitter or Facebook?

And ... Parlor ... Who was shut down by Google, not even their competitor. It's a clear anti-trust violation.

But you're here because you support free markets!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sure, that's what you care about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOLOL

Parler was not shut down by Google. Who knows why you keep repeating that kaz?

If we built military bases that could build naval ships cheaper in those hated southern states, then we should. We need fifty frigates easily. We need fifty destroyers easily. We need a dozen aircraft carriers easily With smaller ones part of the agenda. Go from there.

Asked and answered. It's not my problem you're incapable of understanding my answer.

I saw an opinion from Clarence Thomas making the argument that internet services should be treated like any other common carrier. With the current composition of the Supreme Court, you can expect they might uphold such a position.

The federal government is not allowed to compete with private industry. They can't set up a military base that builds ships.

"All rights have limits . . . if they belong to conservatives. It's outrageous that they think they're allowed the same freedoms we are!"

"Facebook is being completely fair and impartial and moral!! I KNOW they are, because they're doing what I want, and they TOLD me they were!! How dare you contradict my beloved masters!!"\

"You deserve to be silenced, because you refuse to follow orders and think what we're told to!!"

Just curious: Was it the lobotomy or the castration that made you such a puling little lackey?

Why is it that you guys always sound like people immersed in self-pity and victimhood with a persecution complex on top of it all? It's weird because it's just so damn common place among conservatives.

Says the party of woke victimhood.

Democrats built a party on victimhood. Their whining about it is classic.

Democrats are Nazis.

Goebbles: Accuse others of what you are

That's Mustang and the Democrats

LOL

Now that's funny in a thread about how conservatives are victims.

So just to be clear, you think stopping fraud is "victimhood."

My God your ass must just burn from the hypocrisy. You impeached the President TWICE for that accusation you stupid fuck

 

[Hum Dinger]

The State of Florida has no jurisdiction over these companies.

However, these companies do have the right to shut down their services for the entire State of Florida.

The State has full jurisdiction over deceptive and undisclosed trade practices

Grasping at straws much?

There is no inalienable or Constitutional right for anyone to have a Facebook account. It's a private company and can set it's own rules for user accounts. If you don't like those rules, then close your account.

Facebook can change those rules as it sees fit. Facebook doesn't allow hateful, false or inflammatory content - and it has the right to determine which posts fit those descriptions. They have a team of independent qualified experts to review the standards. There's nothing 'deceptive or undisclosed' about it.
