I’m not for Facebook. But if the law makes it impossible for all search indexers and sites to track news then you’ll see wholestead most of these sites just leave. So not Facebook, but theoretically Kbin would be in violation if it copies and pastes the news when sites are posted. Facebook leaving is just a net positive, but I worry about the others. Especially with how it could be enforced.
