Bill > HR8922

This bill, the Break Up Big Tech Act of 2020, aims to amend the Communications Act of 1934 to limit the immunity granted to interactive computer services under Section 230(c). Specifically, the bill states that the immunity provided under Section 230(c)(1) and (2) would not apply to interactive computer service providers that: (A) sell targeted advertising based on user data, (B) facilitate the placement of items into the stream of commerce, (C) collect user data for commercial purposes, or (D) use designs or products intended to addict users. The bill also includes an exception, stating that social media services would be treated as publishers or speakers of user-generated content if they display it in a non-chronological order, delay its display, or hinder its display for reasons other than restricting access to inappropriate material or carrying out a user's direction.
