Introduction Legislative acts and amendments adopted at the federal level can be of high importance not only due to streamlining legal aspects but also in view of the significance of specific topics raised. The conditions of liability for copyright infringement and appropriation of both material and digital developments are an urgent issue in the system of modern law, where the preservation of intellectual property plays a large role. Nevertheless, well-informed decisions can simplify the procedures for interaction among content authors and third parties and, at the same time, determine clear responsibility for any legislative violations. As an example of such an activity, the Communications Decency Act signed in 1996 will be reviewed and, in particular, its Section 230 that Kosseff (2019) defines as an important initiative in his book The Twenty-Six Words That Created the Internet. The issues addressed by the author concern not only the impact of this legislation on the regulation of relations among content authors and third parties but also other topics, for instance, the role of Section 230 in the political context, ethical aspects of this initiative, and other nuances (Kosseff, 2019). From the standpoint of freedom of speech, which largely determines the content of the First Amendment, this legal initiative has become a weighty argument in defense of personal wills and opinions regarding any issues not associated with a direct violation of the law. Therefore, Section 230 is one of the most crucial parts of the legislation governing individuals’ interaction and communication aspects on the Internet, and reviewing the book by Kosseff (2019) may help determine the key impacts of this timely initiative on user activity in an online environment and trade-partnership relationships in general. Legal Significance of Section 230 Resolving the issues of interaction on the Internet was an important task in the era of the development of the global network and controversial issues arising from different users’ wide communication. According to Kosseff (2019), in 1996, a special Section 230 was added to the Communications Decency Act, and its twenty-six-word statement became key in creating the basic principles of responsibility for user activity and administering online resources. As Kosseff (2019) states, the first Internet protocols were developed in accordance with the criteria of accessibility, openness, and transparency. However, the absence of significant restrictions led to the fact that ethical issues began to occur, in particular, responsibility for content posted online and the rationale for using materials from free access. As a result, the controversy and ambiguity of such a policy led to the need to revise the principles of user activities in a virtual space. From a legislative perspective, the regulation of the aspects of this area was necessary. Kosseff (2019) argues that lawsuits related to the distribution of digital content caused public outcry and disapproval. As a result, Section 230, as an important addition to the aforementioned act, was developed, and the decision was made to relieve copyright holders of online resources from liability for materials posted by users. In the context of justice, this decis
