MODERATORS
I really don't understand the people who (on an open source social media platform of all places!) rush to defend Meta/Facebook on bill C-18. Any action taken against Facebook's power in society, no matter how flawed, is inherently good.
This seems relevant: My Distaste For Your Solution Does Not Mean Disregard For The Problem
Anyway, I don't think this law would reduce Meta's power if the company cooperated, because if Meta only falls under the law if it has power then news organizations have an incentive to make sure it keeps enough power to keep the law applicable and keep getting them paid.
