Germany Threaten Facebook With ‘Huge Fines’ If They Don’t Remove Alternative News – InvestmentWatch

march 18 2017 Germany will impose fines of up to 50 million euros if Facebook don’t remove alternative news content from their platform.

A new law being drafted will see social media firms face hefty fines if they take longer than seven days to remove content that German authorities deem to be “illegal” – including so-called fake news.

Germany’s justice minister, Heiko Mass, says that social media giants such as Facebook have not done enough to tackle content that the government deems ‘subversive’.

Social media firms such as Twitter and Facebook were getting better at handling illegal content, said Mr Maas, but both had a long way to go.

Racism and hate speech are believed to have become more prevalent on German social media following the arrival of large number of refugees in Germany.

Any content that was “clearly criminal” would have to be removed within 24 hours under conditions outlined in the draft law. If, after an investigation, content is found to be criminal then that must be removed in seven days. The people who posted the illegal content must also be told about its deletion.

Germany and Facebook are delusional if they think they can control what people post on Facebook.

What are the kraut citizens gonna do.? Call the govt names? Few krauts have guns and thus have no way to fight back. When the guns are gone, everything is gone.

Facebook is bigger than Germany alone. Germany may be able to control people within its borders, but they can't do shit to stop Americans from posting real news on Facebook.
