Per Curiam
that the complaint here likewise fails to state such a claim.
And, in discussing plaintiffs’ revenue-sharing claims, the
Ninth Circuit held that plaintiffs plausibly alleged neither
that “Google reached an agreement with ISIS,” as required
for conspiracy liability, nor that Google’s acts were “intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, or to
influence or affect a government,” as required for a directliability claim under §2333(a). 2 F. 4th, at 901, 907. Perhaps for that reason, at oral argument, plaintiffs only
suggested that they should receive leave to amend their
complaint if we were to reverse and remand in Twitter. Tr.
of Oral Arg. 58, 163.
We need not resolve either the viability of plaintiffs’
claims as a whole or whether plaintiffs should receive further leave to amend. Rather, we think it sufficient to
acknowledge that much (if not all) of plaintiffs’ complaint
seems to fail under either our decision in Twitter or the
Ninth Circuit’s unchallenged holdings below. We therefore
decline to address the application of §230 to a complaint
that appears to state little, if any, plausible claim for relief.
Instead, we vacate the judgment below and remand the
case for the Ninth Circuit to consider plaintiffs’ complaint
in light of our decision in Twitter.
It is so ordered.
