Why don’t any of the articles mention what the “illegal content” consists of?

[-] ShittyBeatlesFCPres@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Maybe because it varies by country? I’d think specific, violent threats would be illegal basically everywhere but hate speech and antisemitism are illegal in much of Europe. In America, they’d have to take down any Hamas videos that have a copyrighted song in the background.

It’s probably just misinformation/disinformation

Been seeing a lot of concerning things on the Gaza Now TG channel, like referring to the concert goers and civilian girls as Israeli military.

I'm also seeing people refer to everyone in Gaza as a part of Hamas.

And who deems what is misinformation/disinformation?

[-] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 1 points 1 year ago

This is a fair question. Everybody has an agenda

[-] Korkki@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Anything that is pro palestine or anti-israel.

For France and maybe EU too it is apology of terrorism.
