EU Censorship Tsar Says Social Media Sites Face Ban if They Don’t Remove ‘Calls for Revolt’, F

The EU’s Commissioner for the Internal Market, the architect of the Digital Services Act (DSA), which will be fully implemented on August 25th, said that “social networks have not done enough” to censor content during the recent waves of unrest and rioting in France following the police shooting of an Algerian-heritage teenager last month.

Appearing on FranceInfo radio on Monday, Mr Breton said that content such as hate speech and “calls for revolt” will “no longer be possible from August 25th.”

"When there is hateful content, content that calls for revolt, for example, that also calls for killing or burning cars, they will have the obligation in the moment to erase them. If they do not do so, they will be immediately sanctioned.”

EU Censorship Tsar Says Social Media Sites Face Ban if They Don’t Remove ‘Calls for Revolt’, Footage of Riots

Someone tell this guy 1984 was a fictional warning, not a step by step handbook for oppression.

Here in the USA it’s getting bad, seems like Europe is about to hit dystopian.

Any EU ATS members want to elucidate us on the situation?

I was watching all the riot footage from France on Twitter. There were some fake posts, but everyone quickly pointed those out as fake. Seems to me we are better news sources than MSM.

Do you sanction killing and burning cars then, in the name of revolt?

Pay close attention people so the next time some politician comes along and cons you into believing section 230 needs to be removed - this is what that removal looks like.

I don’t sanction making footage of the riots illegal.

Look at actions, not words. This makes putting footage of riots illegal.

From link in op:

videos documenting unrest could be blocked throughout the EU in a similar fashion to what occurs in countries such as Communist China.

Several points to note.
First of all, they were all immigrants, supposedly upset because an 18 year old immigrant was shot by the police .
Which does not warrant this insane overblown criminal reaction. No. We agree on that.
Secondly, this was likely purposely instignated to further the flames , by providing bricks to throw, etc, and the MSM further causing the division focusing on the fact the police shot an immigrant.
They want this reaction so they can now 'stop' the next riot by this dystopian social media law. All done on purpose.

I bet it wouldn't be much of a problem if it were Russia or Iran instead of France.

Could stop the next riot by just sending them all home too.

Even other Muslims know the answer let’s looks at what Islamic cleric Mohammad Tawhidi has to say on it.

‘You import garbage that Muslim countries wanted to put in prison’

Off course. I would be all for that! I was just pointing out to Chronaut about why this stupid law was proposed and how they want it this way.

Seems like the sort of thing that will just lead to further revolt tbh, but then again intelligence and competence have never been valued traits for an EU Apparatchik.

Welp , I would expect that from ones that support a Crushingly Fanatical Religious Government (or part of one).
Wouldn't you ?

Even a broken fundamentalist Islamic clock is right twice a day.


The Muslim dreg is acting like a dreg *shocked pikachu face*

When there is hateful content, content that calls for revolt, for example

"Government" the new protected class.

God save us all.
