at the risk of providing more heat than light, trump violated the Presidential Records Act repeatedly by later taking down (aka destroying) his own unwise tweets. this repeated violation of law using twitter itself would have been enough for twitter to either restrict his using any mechanism for revision or deletion or even account termination for aup violations. i pointed this out to them 3.91 years ago.

Amazon is now in the content moderation business, which could potentially open them up to liability if they fail to suspend any other customer who hosts objectionable content.When I actively hosted USENET servers, I was repeatedly warned byin-house and external counsel, not to moderate which groups I hosted based on content, less I become responsible for moderating all groups, shouldn’t that same principal apply to platforms like AWS and Twitter?Is it content moderation, or just giving the boot to enabling criminalactivity? Would that more providers be given the boot for enabling voice spam scams, for example. Didn't one of the $n-chan's get the boot a while back? I don't seem to recall a lot of push back about that and it was pretty much the same situation, iirc.Mike
