At best, the bill will simply lead companies to block all kinds of valuable speech to avoid having to fight about it in court. It would inevitably lead to overly cautious censorship in an attempt to avoid liability, doing real harm to free speech (including important speech around LGBTQ issues, health issues, and more).

I hate it when morons try to craft regulations on things they don’t understand (“it’s a series of tubes.”)
