EU wants to require platforms to filter uploaded content, including code
The other issue not discussed here is that Google and the rest will be required to remove offending content within an hour.Notwithstanding the rest of the discussions, this will only create more jobs. I realize Google may not like the hit to the profit line, bit it's a bit disingenuous to ask only the developers to sharpen the axes and fight the Google's war while not informing them of the rest of the legislation: "Illegal content means any information which is not in compliance with Union law or the law of a Member 
State, such as content inciting people to terrorism, racist or xenophobic, illegal hate speech, child sexual 
exploitation, illegal commercial practices, breaches of intellectual property rights and product safety. What 
is illegal offline is also illegal online."I guess I object the delivery. Tell us everything, and then ask us for support. This way they are just spinning it to fit their agenda in a way that keeps us less informed: "they are after your GitHub". Classical FUDEdit: Here is a much better overview
