Remember that the CDA "protects against liability" since the online services cut a deal during the legislative process.

In other words AOL & co lobbied to have provisions inserted to get them off the hook, even though individual users would still be screwed when the act became law.

Another case of corporations selling out civil liberties.

Remind me how some crypto-peddlers endorse bills that would criminalize domestic crypto use in exchange for their being able to export their (weak) systems. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
