Germany passed a law Adjust the social media that does not erase the Hate Speech up to 50 million euros.


Germany's parliament recently passed a new law called. Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz or Network Enforcement Act, which is to deal with the media and social media. Hate Speech or refusing to remove anything that is illegal in Germany. After being notified within 24 hours.

The media's penalties, whether Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube that does not tolerate Hate Speech deleted messages within that time. There is a minimum of 5 million euros in penalties and up to 50 million euros. The section of text or content? that severe, but not sure whether it is illegal or not. There will be 7 days internal audit process (the source does not specify who checked).



After this preliminary ruling with Facebook, only that the company is making good progress in improving the deleted illegal content with employees more than 3 thousand people. To review the content, with more than a million ports reboot ports in each week.


All this, Germany has relatively strict laws, Hate Speech story already. Issues such as the scope of legislation that will do if people outside of Germany. Post content that is unlawful, and depicted in the social media, Germany.
