The solution to that is to aggressively enforce antitrust laws already in the books, not to oppose "laws of responsibility" because it might have disproportionate impact on small companies.
Note that Germany's "Facebook law" doesn't apply to social media platforms with less than 2 million users, which shows they took steps to protect small businesses from the compliance burden.

Everytime I hear, "be careful with regulations" warning; I think let's just apply it to the big boys. I just had to repeat this. They big money will use scare tactics, and nothing will change. We can at least do a trial run, and recend it if it doesn't work out, or is too restrictive. And they will use the old, once you enact it--well good luck getting rid of it. I've noticed they just aren't enforcing anti-trust laws. I wish they were.
