Ironically, legislation of this kind usually (in other industries) is written or promoted by incumbents to be a barrier to entry that can reduce competition because only big companies can deal with it. Twitter is much better positioned to either fight or comply in some hollow way, vs smaller companies that have real problems to work on.
I know some laws like this only apply to platforms of a certain size though, that may be the case here.
