Abstract
- The article discusses a ruling by the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that TikTok could be held liable for recommending a "blackout challenge" video, which led to the death of a 10-year-old girl, challenging the legal immunity social-media companies have under Section 230. Topics include the potential liability of social-media platforms, criticisms of Section 230's broad protections, and proposed legislative changes to limit the use of algorithms targeting children.
