Although president Karol Nawrocki vetoed the bill aimed at independent media, net channels and portals, the ruling coalition continues in subsequent attempts to introduce the EU Digital Services Directive (DSA). Let us remind – in the first version of the Act, they proposed that officials could at any time remove from the net the content which they arbitrarily consider to be “illegal”. There is no judicial review of bureaucrat decisions. Moreover, it was not even intended to inform those who would endure specified censorship.
Despite Nawrocki's veto, the Tusk government continues its attempts to introduce censorship. According to the late veto law, the anticipation of requesting the blocking of "illegal content" was to be granted "trusted signallersIt’s okay. ” The beneficiary of this solution would be highly left-wing organizations dealing with the tracking of “fascism” and “talk of hatred” in Poland, which would thus have unlimited possibilities to censor everything that they themselves arbitrarily respect as “spreading hatred”.
If this had entered into force, the next election run would have preceded the mass closure of the incorruptible portals – from Radio Maryja, via the Zero Channel, tv Republic and the ultimate Time to our Magna Polonia portal.
Thanks to the excellent analysis of the Censorial Act, which was drawn up by the Ordo Iuris Institute, part of the critical comments to the Act were taken into account by the Sejm's Digital, Innovation and Modern Technologies Commission, which, however, retained provisions allowing for the immediate removal from the net of "illegality" suspects. Further arguments by Ordo Iuris were accepted in the Senate, which, in the amendments, removed the anticipation of giving rigors immediate feasibility to decisions by the president of UKE to remove "illegal content" from the Internet.
Ultimately, based on the Argumethane Ordo Iuris, president Nawrocki vetoed a dangerous, totalitarian bill. By doing so, brought the charges raised by the lawyers of Ordo Iuris. He pointed out that he could not sign a bill that “in practice, means administrative censorship, all the more so due to the fact that it includes the anticipation of financing alleged trusted signallers who, for public money, would indicate unlawful content and citizens who express specified views."
Although the amendment to the Electronic Services Act went into the basket, this does not mean that we can sleep peacefully. The government has already announced another proposal for a law implementing the EU Digital Services Act. It may besides be that the rulers will want to illegally censor Poles in another way. This is shown by the actions of Minister Waldemar Żurek, who is setting up 16 prosecutorial teams to deal with the alleged “talk of hatred”.
Moreover, the activities of these teams are to concern not only origin or religion, but besides "sex". And that's where the large problem begins. In the justifications for these solutions and in the papers referred to by the beetles, sex is not understood as biologically obvious, but in the spirit of the Istanbul Convention – i.e. as "sex identity", understood as a set of social, cultural and declarative characteristics.
This means that the boundary between opinion, criticism and "criticism" becomes completely fluid and recognisable. In practice, this leads to legal chaos in which prosecutors will be forced to interpret ideological sex definitions alternatively of clear standards of law, and average citizens will never be certain that their statements will not become the basis of criminal proceedings.
With the changes in the courts, where the Minister of Justice is hand-designating the case, we can anticipate a number of political processes in which the conviction will be known even before the prosecution's charges are released.
