Siding with YouTube, the Biden administration is urging a federal judge to reject an attempt by video creators to invalidate Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
The administration's move comes in a lawsuit by Kimberly Carleste Newman and other content creators who say YouTube wrongly restricted and de-monetized videos with titles like “black lives matter,” “racism,” and “white supremacy.”
Newman and the others contended in their complaint that Google's YouTube isn't entitled to the protections of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which immunizes web companies from lawsuits over content-moderation decisions.
