CONCLUSION 1498 I. INTRODUCTION A casual review of online housing advertisements uncovers a handful of advertisements that discriminate against somebody. The advertisements range from the somewhat laughable: Free rent for hot blonde model! ... I'm 45, in decent shape, white, have always dated cute girls.1 To the subtle: Two young professional Christian ... men looking for third male aptmate.2 To the blatant: I'm looking for a male roommate, non-smoker, no drugs, no pets, no children, able to pay rent on time.3 I am looking for a Female Christian to share an apartment with in the Cedar Hill/Duncanville/Grand Prairie area.... Must be living in the Dallas area, no one from overseas!4 If these advertisements were printed in the classified section of a newspaper, the newspaper could be liable for violating the Fair Housing Act (FHA). Because these ads appeared on the Internet, however, the question of liability is somewhat more complicated. Section 3604(c) of the FHA makes it unlawful to publish housing advertisements that discriminate on the basis of traits such as race, religion, national origin, or familial status.5 Standing on its own, § 3604(c) would probably impose liability on Internet sites that display discriminatory advertisements. The language of § 3604(c) is broad; even though the Internet did not exist when the law was passed, the courts' interpretations of the statute's text show that the prohibition against discriminatory advertising applies to a wide range of media.6 However, before the courts could address the question whether § 3604(c) applies to Internet advertisements, Congress passed the Communications Decency Act of 1996 (CDA).7 As the Act's name suggests, Congress passed this law in an effort to reduce the amount of obscene, offensive, or otherwise indecent content on the Internet.8 Congress included in the CDA a provision stating that a provider of interactive computer services shall not be considered a publisher of content that originates from third parties.9 Under common law rules, an entity becomes a publisher when it exercises editorial control over content.10 Congress wanted to empower online entities to identify and remove offensive content without being exposed to liability as a publisher. Although this provision was intended to encourage the removal of offensive or unlawful content, most courts have interpreted the CDA in a way that extends immunity regardless of whether an online service provider (OSP)12 attempts to remove offensive content from its pages.13 The minority view, articulated by the Seventh Circuit, envisions a narrower scope of immunity,14 but a suit in that circuit alleging that an OSP violated the FHA has already failed.15 Consequently, it seems unlikely that subsequent plaintiffs will be able to hold OSPs liable for publishing discriminatory housing advertisements under existing law. This result is unfortunate. As an illustration, the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita showed that discriminatory housing advertising remains a persistent problem. …" @default.
