It is a complex issue with no easy solutions. On one hand, content moderation is important in preventing the spread of harmful or illegal content. On the other hand, hosting providers may not have the resources or legal authority to effectively moderate content.



Ultimately, it may be up to governments and law enforcement to address this issue through regulation and enforcement. Hosting providers can also play a role by implementing certain policies and guidelines for their users, but should not be expected to act as sole arbitrators of online content.

It is possible that new conflicts will arise between websites and hosting providers regarding internet speech. Content moderation has been a contentious issue in recent years, with some arguing for stricter rules to prevent harmful content from spreading online, while others argue for free speech and limited regulation.

The decision by Amazon to stop providing hosting services for Parler highlights the challenges faced by hosting providers in deciding what content to allow on their platforms. It is likely that other hosting providers will face similar dilemmas in the future, as they try to balance the need to provide a platform for free expression while also ensuring that harmful or illegal content does not spread.

Ultimately, the issue of content moderation is a complex one that requires careful consideration by all parties involved, including hosting providers, websites, governments, and users. It remains to be seen how this issue will be resolved in the coming years.

I am strongly opposed to giving hosting providers supervisory functions; however, it appears that this may be inevitable. This is similar to banks, which now act as branches of the tax police. They are required to follow Know Your Client (KYC) and FATKA regulations, and must report their clients' financial activities to comply with financial monitoring requirements.

This shift in responsibility from officials to commerce is more convenient for them. Rather than investigating evaders and non-payers in their jurisdiction for a bribe, officials can hold banks accountable for not complying with regulations.

This trend is likely to continue with hosting providers, but it will not be about tax offenses. Instead, they will be tasked with monitoring for mental crimes. These changes align with the views of George Orwell, who warned about such invasions of privacy and government control.
