Interesting.
Real penalties.
Let's see what ends up in it and whether there would be something unacceptable.
I'm curious where the fediverse would fit into this. Or even Nostr where from my understanding taking down information is much harder.
Should be interesting to see how this affects those speaking on the Israel-Gaza conflict. Especially if we as a country continue to support Israel.
As usual with these laws, the people writing them are most likely completely removed from, don’t really care about, nor understand the underlying technologies they’re legislating on. Easiest example to illustrate this is looking at countries pushing for (or already adopting) anti-encryption and online age verification. It’s almost always with those half-measure laws that the most dystopian, privacy invading, abusable stuff gets voted through.
Oh, this one has the fingerprints of the age verification people all over it. It's just that instead of the government mandating it directly (at great political cost because nobody wants it) they've set up a commission given the task of studying the question of what should be done to "protect the children" and making regulations as it sees fit. The age verification lobby, anti-porn crusaders, and giant social media companies will battle for control of the new regulator in this new venue made just for them.
