This. Once you make hosting companies, ISPs, domain registrars, social media platforms, etc. responsible for what people do downstream of them, that's effectively the end of the Internet because there's no way they can possibly police every customer. If you have any doubt about how retarded that could get in a hurry, just remember that right now a sitting congressman is trying to sue twitter over a fucking imaginary cow.
