"Furry.energy"? With a total of 49 members? My World of Warcraft guild has more active players...

This is exactly the point, isn't it? The smallest websites are destroyed, leaving only the megacorps.

That is not the stated purpose of the law and there is recourse built into it. Too often folks view these laws as binaries where none exists.

It's never the stated purpose of the law, but we might do well to be concerned with what it actually does rather than what the proponents claim it would do.

Recourse doesn't matter for a sole proprietorship. If they have to engage with a lawyer whatsoever, the site is dead or blocked because they don't have the resources for that.

I’d encourage you to read the actual text of the law and not just others’ interpretation. The sole proprietorship likely falls into one of the exception clauses or is likely using a platform.

I feel like you're not understanding; people aren't going to read the law, because the law is non-trivial and they don't feel comfortable doing that themselves instead of hiring a lawyer. But they can't afford to hire a lawyer, so instead they're going to block.
