[BUSINESS] A Federal judge in Alabama has allowed the Pornhub case to proceed.

[TheButcher]

No surprise to me, but we will see how this plays out, I am no lawyer (not even play one on tv ) but I think Mindgeek has a decent chance of an appeal on this based on how I read Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. My comment is not about the accusations made in the law suit or the case itself but specifically the interpretation of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act itself.


"U.S. District Judge L. Scott Coogler of the Northern District of Alabama, Western Division, ........ rejected the argument that MindGeek is protected through Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which grants a level of immunity for video hosting websites and social media platforms with third-party content."

More work and money for lawyers, simple cases that get thrown out of court are not lucrative for lawyers.

The question is who comes next obviously the big site gets picked on first, but how far down the food chain will they go.
