•eBay listings for banned chemicals shielded by Section 230, judge rules
75% Informative
The US Department of Justice sued eBay last fall over sales of banned products.
The suit alleged that eBay allowed users to sell hundreds of thousands of banned items.
US District Judge Orelia Merchant agreed with eBay that the DOJ failed to prove that eBay was liable for selling some of these targeted products.
Section 230 bars all of the DOJ's claims, as eBay is shielded from liability for third -party postings.
