"The European Parliament approved a draft version of the law on Wednesday evening, which would impose a one-hour deadline to remove offending content. The law would affect social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, which could face fines of up to 4% of their annual global turnover. David Ibsen, executive director of the Counter Extremism Project, said 'the easy availability of terrorist content online continues to have a huge impact on radicalisation, recruitment, and incitement to violence. 'Police investigations have repeatedly found a critical link between radicalising content online and terror attacks. Nice, France, the Bataclan concert hall attack in Paris, and the Manchester arena bombing are but a few examples of how individuals can be radicalised online.'"
