Internet companies might start seeing their liability protections under federal law rolled back if they behave as publishers or editors, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) said in a recent interview.

Lee made the remark during an interview with Fox News @ Night on Oct. 20, when commenting about Twitter’s suppression and censorship of two exposés by The New York Post that contain allegations about Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
