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:

    It has often been argued that absolute scepticism is self-contradictory; but this is a mistake: and even if it were not so, it would be no argument against the absolute sceptic, inasmuch as he does not admit that no contradictory propositions are true. Indeed, it would be impossible to move such a man, for his scepticism consists in considering every argument and never deciding upon its validity; he would, therefore, act in this way in reference to the arguments brought against him.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    Cynicism formulates issues clearly, but only to dismiss them.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Vernacular buildings are not the sentimental, picturesque backdrop to real life. They may be beautiful, but that is beside the point. They have emerged out of hard necessities, hard work and hard lives. Their appeal lies in the sense they make.
    Gillian Darley (b. 1940)
