A law has come into effect in Germany requiring social media companies to remove "obviously illegal" posts or pay fines of up to 50m euro (£44.3m).
Companies with more than two million German users will have 24 hours to remove posts containing hate speech or other criminal material.
The law is among the toughest of its kind in the world.
Critics have said the law's tight time limits are unrealistic and may lead to accidental censorship.
Theresa May told the United Nations General Assembly last month that tech giants must go "further and faster" to remove extremist content. Along with France and Italy, she is calling for a target of one to two hours for censors to remove illegal material.
does betfair have 2 million german users ?

Doubt betfair has 2 million users, unless they are dormant. At one point there used to be a lot of Germans users I think, then the Germans passed laws to try and cut Betfair out and control the taxes so they went to Germany, so they dropped off. I played the German football markets and saw the drop off of liquidity myself.

German gov introduced a 5% tax on betting stakes in 2012, this also meant 5% added to every single bet placed on here.

Losing the Jerry mug money was hammer blow to liquidity on the Bundesliga. You could back and lay four figures early in the week on the match markets. Last Friday one of the games had a grand total of £267 matched. Now the fckrs are paying 5% tax on each bet with Sportingbet et al.
