> he won't ban users who commit illegal acts

I think this is more of a legal issue regarding selective enforcement and Section 230. He has a good lawyer and always wins his cases, maybe don't be so quick to claim he is being wreckless or breaking laws.

I don't think he'd qualify for the good faith moderation mentioned in section 230.

He's only won cases against Melinda Scott.

What cases has he lost then? Can you cite specific examples?

He also hasn't lost any cases yet. Other than Melinda Scott, all the other lawsuits against him are ongoing.
