It was a pretty shitty defence. Facebook were trying to argue that Section 230 somehow gave them immunity from their own terms and conditions.

Let alone a contract with payments involved. Too bad they weren't hit with tortious interference.

That’s a stretch, but wow, that would be interesting!

I assume by “they” you mean FB/IG. They aren’t the ones who filed suit, so it’s a hard case to make. But I do feel there’s an implicit contract.
