Sen Cruz (R-TX) made it clear he supports repealing tech platforms' safe harbor

During an Oct 17 debate in his campaign for re-election, Sen Ted Cruz (R-TX), when asked about whether Congress should regulate online social media, referenced Section 230 of the1996 Communications Decency Act. He began first by explaining that he took Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to task for Facebook privileging content from certain political viewpoints. He then went on to say that if tech companies are not acting impartial to content, then they shouldn’t be held to the rules that say they are. “Right now, big tech enjoys an immunity from liability on the assumption they would be neutral and fair," he said. "If they’re not going to be neutral and fair, if they’re going to be biased, we should repeal the immunity from liability so they should be liable like the rest of us.” This is a clear reference to Section 230, which promises safe harbor protections for technology platforms from the content posted on them.
