> Small providers and private persons obviously still suffer since they have a hard time defending but I seriously can't think of a better alternative. There are morons on the internet and there need to be ways to enforce a takedown for hate speech IMHO.

1) That already exists in the Estonia case and they complied with it. They still were sued under other legalities in Estonia.

2) The fact you are perfectly happy to trample the rights of people to weak to defend themselves legally is exactly why I have a problem with you.

3) If they are morons, and you are unable to sway people without resorting to force with your superior intellect and speech....maybe your belief in your inherent superiority is illusory.

4) For the most part the solution is more speech, not less. Really the only time "more speech" isn't the solution is the publishing of private facts about private individuals as the ability to do so could be construed as a form of force.
