Platforms would be required to proactively monitor posts and given 24 hours to take down illegal content after it was flagged. The bill would create a new regulator called the Digital Safety Commissioner of Canada that would be in charge of enforcement.
“As lived during the recent Canadian federal election, a general approach to flagging will result in censorship,” Twitter said, explaining that throughout the election campaign, political parties and officials attempted to have content flagged as harmful “in an effort to have it removed from public discourse or score political points.”
The company also said it was concerned the proposal “could have disproportionate impacts on freedom of expression and other fundamental human rights.
“The strong incentive will be simply to take down any content that is alleged to violate the law, in order to avoid legal risk.”
