While Subsection 230 is being promoted for review, Subsection 202 defines the encroachment and punitive for the censorship by big tech.
I'll leave this to your candid review and potential commentary.

I'll be passing this information on to my Representatives and Senators. I'd suggest "we" all do the same. If this is not in "awareness" it cannot be conceptualized nor acted upon.
