      I would so love if companies that had decided they own/can sell the data users published lost section 230 protection. Oh, this is your data? I guess you don’t need to be protected against the data users post if it’s your data now.

      And whatever you put on a public accessible webpage is effectively anyone’s who makes a get request.
