So if a company doesn't have a direct presence in a country but has many users from that country (for example, the German law this article is talking about has a threshold of 2 million German users), it doesn't have to follow the laws of that country? For example, if a newspaper company was about to publish something illegal (like something pro-Nazi), who polices that? My understanding is that its the newspaper company because they know the laws around print media. So, why is social media any different? Why are they not in charge of policing their content? I believe that in some ways, their policing efforts aren't the same as a newspaper because they're not the ones directly creating the content, but they still have a responsibility to police it in some way because it is on their platform.
