Ninth Circuit Rules that Enigma Software can Proceed with its Lawsuit Against MalwarebytesCourt revives Enigma's lawsuit against Malwarebytes. Court rules immunity protection under Section 230 of CDA is "not limitless."
Enigma Software originally filed suit because of Malwarebytes' predatory, anticompetitive blocking of Enigma Software's independently tested, award winning, certified program that has protected millions of users from cybersecurity threats worldwide. As set forth in the allegations of the lawsuit, Malwarebytes targeted Enigma Software precisely because Enigma Software is a successful competitor whose safe and effective anti-malware tool is popular with users. As also described at length in the lawsuit, Malwarebytes' anticompetitive blocking practices have specifically harmed consumers by depriving them of the right to use the security software of their choice, as well as the right to choose to have multiple layers of anti-malware protection on their devices to better protect against ever-increasing malware risks and cybersecurity threats.
