Imagine if Tier 1 ISPs had a censorship free clause that required companies like Twitter, Facebook, and Amazon to provide services free of censorship or have IP blocks blackholed. They would lose hundreds of millions of dollars per day. I bet they would reverse their tone in a hurry.

Section 230 only applies to publishers, and not to network providers. If this were a cloud hosting provider list then you'd be correct, but as a network provider's list it does not belong here.

I have already explained how this represents a significant issue for Network Operators.

If you can specifically bring up an issue, beyond speculative, on how their new chosen CDN is somehow now causing congestion or routing issues on the public internet, then great. But as of now, that isn't even a thing. It's just best to leave it alone because it will devolve into chaos. - Mike Bolitho On Sun, Jan 10, 2021, 6:54 AM <sro...@ronan-online.com<mailto:sro...@ronan-online.com>> wrote: Why?
