Bill > HR7045

This bill, titled the PROTECT Act, proposes to repeal Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934, a law that generally shields online platforms from liability for content posted by their users. The bill also makes conforming amendments to various other federal laws, including the Trademark Act of 1946, Title 17 (Copyright) and Title 18 (Crimes) of the U.S. Code, the Controlled Substances Act, and others, by removing references to Section 230 and, in some cases, redefining terms like "interactive computer service" to align with other sections of the Communications Act. The intent of repealing Section 230 is to hold online platforms more accountable for the content they host, thereby promoting responsible online technology and ensuring consumer trust.
