Re: The PG13 Dilemma
Our legal team disagrees with your interpretation. They believe it'd certainly be possible for a MUD operator to be successfully sued for the communications of players in some contexts, though those contexts would largely be established by a pattern of behavior on the part of the MUD operator (for instance, tacitly encouraging young players to share real-life details with each other on top of a sexualized environment, etc).
In other words, you believe it's so unclear to experts-as-a-whole that it has to go to the Supreme Court to get clarity. Not exactly black & white, as I said.
Ok. Attorneys whom I've retained for advice on exactly this topic disagree that it's so clear-cut. It's dangerous to rely on Wikipedia or a layman's reading of legal code for advice on a particular situation.
