Doe V. My Space - Arguments and Issues On Appeal

Arguments and Issues On Appeal

Plaintiffs appeals the district court's dismissal of their claims for negligence and gross negligence arguing:

  1. That § 230(c)(1) of the CDA is inapplicable here because their claims do not implicate MySpace as a 'published' protected by the Act
  2. That MySpace was partially responsible for creating the content of the information that was exchanged between Julie and Solis.
  3. That § 230(c)(2) does not immunize MySpace's failure to take reasonable steps to ensure minor's safety
  4. The court should apply the law of premises liability germane to owners of real property to publishers and Internt service providers operating in the virtual world of cyberspace.

Famous quotes containing the words arguments, issues and/or appeal:

    Argument is conclusive ... but ... it does not remove doubt, so that the mind may rest in the sure knowledge of the truth, unless it finds it by the method of experiment.... For if any man who never saw fire proved by satisfactory arguments that fire burns ... his hearer’s mind would never be satisfied, nor would he avoid the fire until he put his hand in it ... that he might learn by experiment what argument taught.
    Roger Bacon (c. 1214–1294)

    The “universal moments” of child rearing are in fact nothing less than a confrontation with the most basic problems of living in society: a facing through one’s children of all the conflicts inherent in human relationships, a clarification of issues that were unresolved in one’s own growing up. The experience of child rearing not only can strengthen one as an individual but also presents the opportunity to shape human relationships of the future.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    The more dubious and uncertain an instrument violence has become in international relations, the more it has gained in reputation and appeal in domestic affairs, specifically in the matter of revolution.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
