Internet service providers escape responsibility for posted content via
the Internet Decency Act of 1996, which absolved them from legal liability,
provided that they have no mechanism or policy to moderate content.
Conversely, if they do have a policy, they are fully responsible for
posted content. The analogous question would be, "Is Stereophile an open,
unmoderated forum, or is there a central authority that is clearly
responsible for its content?" I believe it is clear that the second case
applies.


Maybe it should be censored by the government.


You rightly mock Bobo's attempt to paint a privately owned entertainment
venue with a public convenience. Certainly the same rules don't apply to a
public park as to an art gallery.
