That would be very bad for free speech. Companies would not take any chances and would remove any content that could remotely bring them trouble. I'm sure there would be lots of bad takedowns and it would be abused just like the DMCA.
Depending on private companies for free speech is bad for free speech in and of itself. So either course has negatives, which means the course with leqsr negative outcomes is best. If they over moderate, they lose users. If they undermoderate they face fines. I'm sure the market force will mean they do whatever is most profitable.
