An internet service provider can be held liable for disseminating defamatory remarks if they have actual knowledge of the defamatory nature of the content and fail to remove it or take action to prevent its dissemination. This is outlined in section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which provides some immunity to ISPs, but not in cases of actual knowledge or willful misconduct.
