From the letter: Any regulation needs to encourage comprehensive content responsibility, meaning companies are accountable for ensuring their practices and processes do not give undue amplification to harmful and illegal content.
Does the same viral amplification of normal content become "undue" when applied to "harmful" (I'm sure the definition won't be abused!) content? Meaning platforms will have to preemptively police and suppress such content, or be held liable?
I would have expected a company supposedly devoted to user freedom such as Mozilla to know better than to endorse censorship through vague messaging like this.
