MODERATORS
So basically, the law's unlikely to change much before being pushed to vote, which considering how stupid it is, it's likely to be outright rejected like Chat Control by the Parliement.
Still, it's good to raise awareness on the issue.
According to the EP legislative train digital age:
"The regulation also clarifies the scope of number of other notions such as the qualified website authentication certificates (used to verify the identity of persons or legal entities behind a website). This identity data has to be displayed in a user-friendly manner. In case of substantiated security concerns, web browsers are allowed to take precautionary measures related to these certificates
The text still needs to be formally adopted by the Parliament and the Council before it can be published in the EU’s Official Journal and enter into force. "
