San Francisco Chronicle: Court tosses lawsuit accusing Twitter of profiting from sex trafficking

San Francisco Chronicle: Court tosses lawsuit accusing Twitter of profiting from sex trafficking. “A federal appeals court on Wednesday dismissed a suit accusing Twitter of profiting from sex trafficking by allowing a paying customer to post nude photos of two 13-year-old boys. The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals relied on a 1996 federal law that shields tech platforms from liability for content posted by others, a law now under review in the Supreme Court.”
