The Politics of Moderating Content

Under the DSA, you have now trusted flaggers that are state approved to get special priority when they notify platforms about content. You have auditors who are supposed to come in on an annual basis and assess whether the platform is really doing what they're supposed to be doing under the DSA. There's also this really interesting kind of backstop to the whole thing, which is once the researcher access rules for the very large online platforms become law then there will be a universe of academic researchers getting access to inside data of platforms. So it just turns the ecosystem into something much more big and complicated, and sometimes cumbersome and expensive and wasteful.
