I don’t think there’s a single republican who understands what section 230 does. If they repeal it, every controversial account on the internet will be closed and trump’s will be first to be shut down.

This is the part that Trump hates:
Quote:
(c) Protection for “Good Samaritan” blocking and screening of offensive material. (1) Treatment of publisher or speaker. No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider. (2) Civil liability. No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of— (A) any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected; or (B) any action taken to enable or make available to information content providers or others the technical means to restrict access to material described in paragraph (1) [subparagraph (A)].
Trump doesn't like that internet fora can allow people to say bad things about him. He also doesn't like that they can stop him from saying bad things about other people.
Bottom line: if 47 U.S.C. § 230 goes, it's the end of the internet as we know it in America.

Attaching it to the package is probably a tactic of making sure the stimulus is delayed further.

Doubtful. I don't think a repeal will happen.

I think it’s more that they know people are desperate for money and they don’t give a shit if some esoteric telecom rule gets altered.
