"While the right to freedom of expression is not absolute, any limitation thereof must only take place as a last resort, has to be proportional and carried out with utmost caution, with legal guarantees of swift and effective judicial oversight, in order to avoid censorship, State-imposed or otherwise. The legal obligation of social media to remove harmful content that is lawfully declared illegal in an appropriate national procedure should not be abused, as it could effectively lead to imposing such censorship."
The amendment underlines that limitations of freedom of expression may only be imposed as a last resort and that efective legal measures for the parties concerned should always be provided.
