Safer Internet: New Rules Against Illegal Content and Better User Rights

This act implements EU rules to protect internet users from illegal content and unfair practices by digital platforms. Citizens gain easier ways to report violations, the right to claim compensation in court, and support from specialized authorities in defending their online rights.
Key points
Easier reporting of illegal content: 'Trusted flaggers' will be established to ensure that reports of illegal online materials are prioritized by platforms.
Complaints against websites: Users can file complaints with the Digital Services Coordinator (President of UKE) if a platform violates their rights.
Compensation from online platforms: Users can sue digital platforms in district courts for damages resulting from violations of digital service rules.
Legal support: Public authorities and trusted organizations can file lawsuits on behalf of and with the consent of affected users.
Strict control over tech giants: Polish regulators (UKE, UOKiK, KRRiT) will monitor online services and can impose fines of up to 6% of their global turnover.
Out-of-court dispute resolution: Certified independent bodies will help users quickly resolve disputes with platforms (e.g., regarding unfair account suspension) without going to court.
