New EU regulations put more responsibilities on tech giants: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Services_Act
Lemmy instance admins are responsible for staying compliant with laws of countries they operate in, there’s nothing new about it.

You should read it at your earliest convenience, as your preemptive conclusion that the “EU just preemptively banned social media in the EU” is absolutely not what the Digital Services Act is about.

You’ve linked to the Digital Markets Act. The Digital Services Act, also linked from the Wikipedia article provided above, is a different thing.
You don’t understand correctly:
“The DSA proposal maintains the current rule according to which companies that host other’s data are not liable for the content unless they actually know it is illegal, and upon obtaining such knowledge do not act to remove it.”
No idea how you came to that wild conclusion lol

You’ve read the Digital Markets Act, not the Digital Services Act and everything you say sounds completely made up again. I’m sure as shit not gonna read the whole thing you linked just to prove you wrong. Either come up with quotes from the right document or this discussion is over.
What is wrong with you…
lol
To my knowledge, the current status of x formerly known as twitter, is that it is terrible. Elon has fired most of the staff, part of that staff was content monitors that should delete misinformation before it gains too much traction. The EU holds websites responsible if they don’t at least try dealing with it. Lemmy is not even a blip on their radar, and would not even be easily threatened being a collection of random servers
An adult would go and check what EU wants and why.
