Poland lets regulators block content without court orders

Poland's Sejm passed amendments allowing regulators UKE and KRRiT to order platforms to block content, including speech promoting political violence, within 48 hours without prior court approval. The bill now goes to President Karol Nawrocki, who vetoed an earlier version. Poland faces up to PLN 40 million in EU fines for its DSA delay.
