I think the idea that sites have no liability for customly built content designed to capture your attention is kind of wild. It would be one thing if it was a basic or public thumbs up popularity thing based on the groups you join or were apart of. Or a time chronological ordering of things. But its more than that. Its a big math equation that looks at everything you have ever done sells that data and than goes and uses it also to serve you custom ads and contents that maximally steal and maintain attention.

Following you final state and some of the other sub threads, I think removing section 230 hurts larger sites more than smaller ones but also I think its a silly point. If the opposite was true that it benefits small sites more why does 90% of internet traffic go yo just the top 1000 sites? Its because there is no liability and cost to operate in ways that hurt people and the world. A reduced order of the algorithms say chronological ordering or basic vote systems perhaps deserve section 230 protection but the friction roster of videos custom order to capture attention is a type of content production and perhaps needs regulations
