The situation here is too fucked up. This law is just an attempt to legitimize what these judge-kings are already doing. They're already censoring whatever they want. They have been censoring since last year's elections, even though censorship is already unconstitutional. What's a little law like this one to people who get away with violating the constitution? Even if this doesn't become law they can just decide to enforce it anyway as if it had passed.

I don't have a ton of local knowledge of what is happening or the situation. But the power grab here is immense, and I cannot imagine how any company, regardless of budget, could hope to live up to these mandates, even if the oversight board was fair & balanced & could judge corporate performance reasonably, which they won't be & can't. And the suprnational overreach seems absurd; so far beyond their borders.
