Original Note:
The claim that “thousands” are convicted in Europe for criticizing governments is unsupported. Some countries allow jail for defaming officials, but convictions number in the dozens to hundreds. DSA regulates platforms, not individuals. Sources: (https://www.fodors.com/news/countries-where-criticizing-government-could-land-you-in-jail), (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defamation#Europe)
