And how the hell do they achieve that? How does anyone get any warning that such material is about to land on their sites?

And how will discussion forums like this one operate without flooding their sites with moderators?

This is so ill thought out, I find it difficult to understand how it’s got so far in the legislative process. The only way for websites to achieve this is to vet all material before it lands.

Good luck to the likes of X Corp (ex Twitter) and Meta (ex Facebook) with thousands of posts arriving every day.
