The issue is that all it takes is a pile on (that some members enjoy) to get a legal recourse that doesn't affect those that made the comments but the website owner.
If users have ticked a checkbox to accept platform rules, breached those rules and caused the platform owner to be fined.
Could the platform owner pursue users to reclaim costs?
