| Subject: OZschwitz Gulag: Jail time and billions in fines under fast-tracked crackdown on social media giants Fri Mar 29, 2019 7:23 pm | |
| Social media executives face up to three years in prison and their companies could be hit with billions of dollars in fines under legislation to be introduced to Parliament next week, marking a dramatic and "world-leading" move by the Morrison government against the dissemination of extremist content online.
