Which means the consequence for any mistake on sticking exactly to the bounds of legally mandatory moderation is enormous liability (either massive civil liability if you go slightly beyond the bounds of the minimum, or given the source of most minimums catastrophic criminal liability if you fall below it); the only realistic approach at non-trivial scale is just not to allow UGC except at the level you are willing to edit as if it were first party content you were going to be fully responsible for.
