Google is being hauled before the Supreme Court this week as part of a lawsuit that could radically alter the future of online speech and content moderation.
The tech giant will defend the statute known as Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which immunizes internet companies from lawsuits over content posted by third parties.
Open arguments before the nine justices are scheduled to begin on Tuesday.
The case against Google was brought by the family of a woman who was killed in a 2015 ISIS terror attack in Paris.
