I cannot help but see an analogy with the physical origins from which CBBs
take their names, namely real bulletin boards, ya know, with pins, cork
etc.  Does this folly really mean that universities, supermarkets,
businesses, etc. that provide public bulletin boards are liable for the
consequences of the messages posted, liable for seizure of their
bulletin board????  My (non-lawyer) mind just can't fathom that
thinking.
