Facing a short deadline and high penalties for non-compliance, platforms “will choose to prioritize speed over accuracy and automatically block/remove content that is subject to a flag if their automated system concludes there is even a remote possibility that the content is prohibited.
Google is also concerned about the government suggestion to require platforms to report content to law enforcement, saying platforms may feel pressured to report content that could even potentially be prohibited. It said this “regular flow of large volumes of user data from private companies to law enforcement organizations without user knowledge would violate consumer expectations about privacy and government surveillance in a democratic country.
