Super overview and commentary on the historiy and many iterations/amendments
Format: Hardcover
I purchased and carefully read Jeff Kosseff's "The Twenty-Six Words That Created the Internet." It is an illuminating and thorough account of all facets of the legislation including history, enactment, modifications and amendments etc. A complex subject to understand, Mr. Kosseff did an outstanding job of presenting the complicated history and details and understanding of why this is incredibly important leading up to the form that is now in use. Some reviewers complain about too much detail, but I disagree, it is very important to understand the detail. A difficult topic and a great job of presentation. I would like to have a time line e.g., something like a "herring bone" chart notating all of the critical stages of development up to the present ... from initial concepts to Section 230 rollout and the important changes / amendments in both substance and use of 230. I am now reading Koseff's latest book on a similar but different topic, "The United States of Anonymous" which deals with how the first amendment shaped the development of our online speech.

Entertaining, educational and provoking
Format: Hardcover
I really didn’t expect this level of enjoyment from reading a book about a serious law material. This book is entertaining almost like a thrilling mini series to me due to the author’s great storytelling. Vivid arguments in various courtrooms over decades, sad stories of victims, some hilarious cases (especially Smith), unjust and unfair cases, interesting judges, … I just enjoyed reading them over cover to cover.
It is definitely educational. I don't have any legal background and I hardly knew Section 230. After the joyful reading, I could learn history, importance and main issues of Section 230. I believe it is a must-read to many people including software engineers like me.
I couldn’t be comfortable when the author compared the amount of benefit of Section 230, which has promoted proliferation of US Internet business, to the amount of suffering of women, children, and unfairly defamed people. However, I believe the author, on purpose, provoked this discussion. Including his own sincere opinion, he introduced various discussions deeply in later chapters, which helped me to think a lot.

Interesting and clear
Format: Kindle
The book reviews the history of the law that protects interactive websites from prosecution due to defamation. The discussion is interesting and straightforward, but there are too many unimportant details in some places.

The most well researched book about Section 230 and free speech on the Internet
Format: Hardcover
Many are calling for regulation of the tech industry. This book does an excellent job of outlining the “it’s not that simple” aspect of the debate. Some say big tech is doing too much to silence legitimate conversations and others say they are not doing enough to combat hate speech and false information.
Regardless of which side you fall on it is important to know the history and this book is a well written account. Professor Kosseff does an excellent job of both presenting the history of Section 230, but also mixing in his well reasoned opinions about how we should proceed. Most importantly posing the question of if you don’t want big tech regulating the internet, you better think long and hard about who you do want, and what that will look like.
This should be a mandatory read for any tech reporter who even utters the words “Section 230”. Thanks for the information.

The book that might save the internet
Format: Hardcover
The level of misunderstanding about Section 230 in media and government is astounding. All they have to do is read Kosseff's book to clear up their misunderstanding. The New York Times made a colossal mistake confusing Section 230 with the First Amendment. I hear media people all the time thinking they can't moderate comments because of Section 230 (the opposite is true). I see politicians going after Section 230 because they think it is the root of the net's problems (they are dead wrong). Section 230 is our best protection of free expression and human dignity on the net, for as Kosseff clearly explains, it is intended to enable the public conversation (by not making platforms -- including news organizations -- liable for what others do on their sites) and it is also intended to empower platforms and media companies to moderate what people do on their sites to their own standards. The law is short and clear and is vital to the future of the net and the public conversation on it.
Kosseff puts forward an excellent history of the development of legislation and case law on free expression in books, movies, and other media. He talks with the creators of Section 230 and explains their goals and motives. He outlines the debate about the law.
That debate is now reaching a critical phase in both media and Washington. Thus Kosseff's book is a document of urgent importance. I wish some rich person would come along to buy every member of Congress and every news organization a copy so they don't keep screwing this up.
