interesting

Obenberger could only speculate as to why the bulletin board had dropped out as a defendant, but said that liability for bulletin boards typically applies if the site edits content. Sites that don’t edit content, he explained, function more like Internet service providers in the eyes of the law.

On a local forum I'm watching 2 nitwits fighting. One woman published the guy's address, then the moderator removed the address and replaced it with the woman's real name (post is still there). One person called a school teacher a communist and now all hell has broken loose.

The "if you edit it means you're liable" rule has been around forever. I'm trying to remember the case back in the 90's where this came to being but we were told the reason Usenet did not remove content (when CP was posted back then) was due to this ruling.

OHHHHHH well since you put it that way so in other words we all get mad and say/type whatever in the heat of the moment!! but you could calm down and think about it come to your senses and do the right thing and change what you said and when you do think about it puttin someones address down so thousands can see it well that is kinda over the line no matter what the feud is in my opinion anyways

Everything you say will be taken out of context and used against you wherever it shall suit my best interests.
