Description
A summary explanation of United States 2018 legal bills FOSTA-SESTA. In short, the previous legal precedent, Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act, granted immunity to websites from being held culpable for content posted by third parties (users of their websites). The FOSTA-SESTA bills are intended to make it easier for prosecutors and plaintiffs to bring sites involved in sex trafficking to justice.
