Families of Buffalo massacre victims sue Meta, Reddit, and Google over conspiracy theories::The lawsuit seeks changes to the changes companies’ safety standards, with the plaintiffs calling the platforms “defective and unreasonably dangerous.”
Suing public spaces of discussion for what random-ass people talk about sounds pretty fucking stupid.
If I told a friend about my conspiracy theories while having lunch at a Burger King, would Burger King be liable for the dumb bullshit that came out of my mouth in addition for the dumb bullshit I put in it? 🤔
It would if Burger King recommended that conspiracy theory to its other customers, which is what social networks are designed to do.
