⏲️[08:40] Wrap-up & Outro
🗣️ EDRi is not alone on this. There's a lot of academics, fact checkers organisations and even independent publishers who have declared similar positions on Article 17 EMFA.
🗣️ A 24-hour must-carry obligation for media content: (...) this would be an exception for content moderation policies of very large online platforms. This is problematic (...) The EP CULT Committee is missing the bigger picture.
🗣️ The nature of media service providers does not prevent them from publishing disinformation, propaganda or harmful content. This 24-hour must-carry obligation could open the door to malicious actors.
🗣️ This rule creates an exception for a specific actor on how content moderation rules work in the DSA. Article 17 EMFA does not follow the DSA logic and rules that are already approved in this horizontal regulation.
🗣️ The CULT Committee [proposals] could jeopardise [the] fight against disinformation. (...) [certain] measures such as down ranking, labelling or diluting visibility of media content will not be possible or could be challenged by media.
