Calls on platform operators to take their responsibility as content distributors and gatekeepers, as they play a crucial role in accessing news, audiovisual content and creative works; stresses that in order to safeguard and promote cultural and linguistic diversity, the promotion of European works, as well as media pluralism, the use of algorithms by such platforms should be transparent so that it is clear how access to content is granted, denied, ranked and/or undermined; calls on platform operators to not only to immediately delete illegal content after positive identification, but also to continuously transmit it to the law enforcement authorities for the purpose of further prosecution, including the metadata necessary for this purpose

Amendment 36 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 3 a (new) 3a. Recognises that the Disinformation Code of Practice (CoP) has helped to structure a dialogue with platforms and regulatory bodies; suggests that online platforms should place effective and appropriate safeguards, in particular with a view to ensuring that they act in a diligent, proportionate, and non-discriminatory manner and to prevent the unintended removal of content which is not illegal;

Amendment 44 #
3c.

Draft opinion Paragraph 4 a (new) Amendment 6 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1a.

Amendment 66 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 c (new) 4c. Expresses its concern regarding the undue restrictions on non-profits and small private intermediaries and urges the adoption of criteria that are objective and provide for clear exemptions that would allow content-sharing providers to untap their potential reaching a larger size, and foster a true level-playing field, which in turn would not cause an impediment to the right to science and culture;

Amendment 76 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 f (new) 4f. Strongly believes that the E- commerce Directive1a has been a piece of legislation with significant success and 20 years of unfettered operation, thus opines that a codification of jurisprudence by the Court of Justice of EU would be an appropriate way forward; _________________ 1aDirective 2000/31/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2000 on certain legal aspects of information society services, in particular electronic commerce, in the Internal Market ('Directive on electronic commerce')
Amendment 77 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 f (new) 4f. Points to the responsibility of platforms to remove or disable access to content determined to be unlawful and to impose community standards that restrict offensive and outrageous speech;
Amendment 78 #
4g. Strongly believes that there is a need to strengthen platform liability when it comes to illegal and unsafe products, thus re-enforcing the digital single market; recalls that in those cases, platform liability should be fit for its purpose considering the consumer safeguards in place which should be observed at all times and the establishment of concomitant redress measures for retailers and consumers; believes that the system could only function if enforcement authorities have sufficient powers, tools and resources to enforce the provisions and efficiently cooperate in cases with a transnational element;
Amendment 79 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 g (new) 4g.
