The internet was built on a promise—but sustained by a legal fiction. Section 230 granted platforms immunity as "neutral conduits." That fiction is now collapsing under the weight of generative AI.

In this episode, we explore the profound legal and ethical questions raised by AI-generated content:

📌 Why the "neutral conduit" analogy was always flawed—and why it's now entirely unsustainable

📌 The 2026 Bouck v. Meta ruling that changed everything

📌 Why users are treated as publishers while AI platforms escape responsibility

📌 The perverse incentive structure that rewards automation over accountability

📌 What judicial and legislative reform could look like—and why it matters

Key topics covered:

• Section 230 and the birth of platform immunity

• The algorithmic turn and the end of "neutrality"

• How generative AI shatters the old legal framework

• The asymmetry of responsibility between users and platforms

• Bouck v. Meta and the German Google ruling

• The economic case for reform

• Why liability won't stifle innovation—and why that argument is a myth
