Nothing within the known universe moves faster then light, but the universe itself expands faster then light travels within it.

I'm shocked that any physical products ever got into the hands of the people who wanted then, I thought for sure it was a total scam. Apparently I was right, just not in the way I had thought.

I don't see the issue. Her grandma is being loving and supportive, and it's not like grandma doesn't know what sex is.

Didn't one of these trip and shake itself to bits?

I co-chaired the committee that reviewed the recommendation to revise the color of the book that regulation's in... We kept it grey!"

Bureaucratic babbel at it's finest.

I understand. I'm ND so it's hard for me to pickup social cues as it is, text makes it especially hard to figure out emotion or intention at times.

Thank you again for helping me understand a little better. 😁

This is why I asked if anyone could clarify for me. Thank you for explaining in a more natural manor, the language used to write these proposals is often confusing for me.

With your clarification, it definitely seems to me like the protections in place should stay there. Maybe there are issues with some of these companies, but I don't think removing these particular protections will change the issues I see, just stifle open speech.

This is exactly why I asked if anyone could clarify for me, I didn't understand what was really being put on the political table here. Thank you for elucidating, the language used to write these proposals is often confusing for me. I understand that's often done purposely by the people submitting such legislation, so I usually have to find someone who can understand it better then I can.

Answering my own question, it seems that "Sunset acts" are a common occurrence in legislation that end programs and activities that have more or less run their course or stopped being effective or meaningful.

The reason this Sunset Act is being mentioned is...

Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act was created to protect early internet platforms from lawsuits over user-generated content, a safeguard widely seen as essential to the internet’s development. As social media companies have become some of the nation’s most powerful and influential corporations, critics have questioned whether that protection should remain.

... so my understanding is that this Sunset will remove some outdated protections from social media platforms, effectively forcing them to adapt with better policies and practices or open themselves up to litigation.
