.@HateAid erklärt hier die Details zum Twitter Prozess, der übermorgen in Frankfurt verhandelt wird. Fast immer wenn eine neue Grundsatzfrage vor Gericht gebracht wird, um Opfer von Hasskriminalität zu schützen, kommt die Prozessfinanzierung von #HateAid, so auch hier.
@HateAid Musk hat eine ganz eigene Vorstellung von Content-Moderation ohne Löschung. Sie widerspricht nur dem Gesetz und freundlicherweise äußert er sich dazu sehr freimütig.

@HateAid Wichtiger Aspekt aus den aktuellen Entwicklungen: Dass @elonmusk den Account von Alex Jones gesperrt lässt, ist an sich zu begrüßen, aber es zeigt, dass diese Entscheidungen alleine von der persönlichen Einschätzung eines Milliardärs abhängen.

Super interesting, German District Court Frankfurt (2-03 O 188/21) rules on filter-obligations for social networks in defamation cases (Künast v. Facebook).

In a nutshell:

Facebook loses, needs to take pro-active measures to prevent (identical + equivalent) defamation.

Court basically argues: After the claimant (MP Künast) notified Facebook about one instance of defamatory post, the law didn’t require her to sysiphus-like search every re-share or re-upload. Instead, Facebook was obliged to pro-actively prevent copies and re-appearances.

Court argues that this also includes prevention of “similar content” (different wording, different layout, hidden pixels). Court argues that even if this might require human review, this doesn’t make the (de-facto-filter) obligation disproportionate.

Art. 15(1) E-Commerce-Directive is THE decisive rule to which extent you might successfully sue Facebook & Co. to filter/prevent infringing content.

Topic is of relevance these days for 2 reasons: First, we might see another landmark ruling: on 8th April 2022 ...

.. a German district Court will rule on filter obligations in prominent proceeding Künast v. Facebook (important since in this area we have one ECJ ruling which is somewhat vague and few national courts have chances to move on with interpretation).

The other reason why we should pay attention is the ongoing #DSA -negotiations. Lawmakers are split whether to change the rules here, with the EP wanting to make it more industry-friendly (not good!).

Sidenote: Art. 7 is way more important than many other things in the DSA.
