O/T California High Court: Yelp Can't Be Ordered To Take Down Posts

“No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider” (§ 230(c)(1)), and “No cause of action may be brought and no liability may be imposed under any State or local law that is inconsistent with this section” (§ 230(e)(3)). The fact that it was 4-3, rather than 7-0, is disturbing.

Seems pretty clear to me.

No one is claiming that Yelp should be liable for the defamation posted on its site -- just that they should be required to remove defamatory posts.
