What it does

The Sunset Section 230 Act would repeal Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934, which currently provides legal immunity to online platforms for user-generated content and allows them to moderate content without being treated as publishers. The bill affects internet platforms, content hosts, and users by removing these protections, potentially increasing liability for platforms regarding third-party content. It includes numerous conforming amendments to other federal statutes to replace references to Section 230 with definitions from Section 223 of the Communications Act, and the changes would take effect two years after enactment.
