So anybody can now shut down any website in the EU that allows uploading of images or text or video or audio?

  They can't because you won't be allowed to upload anything that doesn't pass the content filter, or anything at all for that matter.

    Are you saying every single EU website will have a filter for all uploads?
    • aequitas 8y ago
      That or they won't allow uploads at all/cease to exist in the EU. The rules approved now are to unclear on what sites are and aren't affected. So what will you do as site owner? Take the risk of going to court or just avoid the situation entirely?

      Yep, unless they are non-profit, and less than 3 years old, and have less than 10€ in revenue, and have less than 5 million unique visitors.
