Bill > S3546

This bill, titled the "Sunset Section 230 Act," proposes to repeal Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934, a law that has historically protected online platforms from liability for most third-party content posted by their users. The bill aims to remove this protection by repealing Section 230 entirely, with the changes taking effect two years after the bill is enacted. In addition to repealing Section 230, the bill makes numerous conforming amendments to other federal laws, including the Trademark Act of 1946, various sections of Title 18 of the U.S. Code (which deals with crimes and criminal procedure), and other acts, by removing references to Section 230 and, in some cases, redefining terms like "interactive computer service" and "Internet" to align with the proposed repeal. The intent of these changes is to fundamentally alter the legal landscape for online platforms regarding their responsibility for user-generated content.
