re 2): in this context we are using the term open platforms to refer to all platforms that allow users to upload content in some form or another (i.e the type of platforms that the DSM directive classifies as Online Content Sharing Service Providers”). we are not using the term open here i the way that it is used in the open content / open data / opens source software discourse.

re 1): we think that it is worrysome to put decisiions on what constittutes acceptable communication in the hand of commercial prlatform operators who will delegate this to algorithms designed to limit their liability. Article 13 would make this kind of private enforcement of speech a legal requirement for all open platforms in the EU and we think this is worrysome.
