While censorship and reddit sucks, this sounds like a horrible idea. If sites moderated and then lost their protections and were held liable for user content, then it would kill free speech by killing all of the user-generated content platforms.

Sites that are moderating to the point to where it is biased very much suck, but I think that helping sites such as saidit exist, and letting the users to make the choice to find a better community that doesn't suppress content unfairly is the better route.

Otherwise, there will be no sites.

so stop moderating
