  • Under the new rules, online platforms must implement ways to prevent and remove posts containing illegal goods, services, or content while simultaneously giving users the means to report this type of content.

    Additionally, the DSA bans targeted advertising based on a person’s sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, or political beliefs and puts restrictions on targeting ads to children. It also requires online platforms to provide more transparency on how their algorithms work.

    I believe this is a step in the right direction. Many of the current issues surrounding anti-establishment sentiments and heated political debates stem from content algorithms and a lack of content moderation. It’s important to have regulations similar to those established for TV and radio, extending them to the internet.

    While the concept of a free internet is appealing, it’s crucial to acknowledge that the landscape has evolved since the days of web 1.0, especially with the monopolization of the internet by tech giants in web 2.0/3.0, dominated primarily by American and emerging Chinese entities. With technology becoming more streamlined, regulation is necessary.

    The next logical step would involve breaking up big tech companies to encourage healthier market competition.

    Honestly, while the humor and memes might seem amusing, it’s important to recognize that this is precisely what they want. By making the situation seem ridiculous, we risk diverting attention from the serious and substantial allegations against Trump.

    We shouldn’t allow them to manipulate the narrative and trivialize the issues at hand. Their intention is to downplay the gravity through memes and laughter, while the actual impact on global democracy is a significant concern.

    Stay focused on the real issues and their implications.
