Technically Twitter has the same protections as Verizon, for doing the same service as verizon. Which is transmission of information within it's networks. Remember, verizon does not store any of the content they transmit.Does not matter, the fact is they can be held responsible for things on their platform and Verizon cannot be for thing sent across their network...thus they are not regulated the same.
Where Twitter is regulated, is when they store that content on their servers, thus attain permanent possession. They have a duty to review that stored content to see if it's legal for them to publish it.
