Can't see how the lawsuit on the tech giants gets passed Section 230, which is unfortunate as Spez and the people who run Youtube willfully helped enable and encourage this shooter.

You argue that the product is faulty, you don't play with 230. That's my guess as to their strategy, as its the same strategy other lawyers are attempting to use.
