LONDON (Reuters) -The operator of Wikipedia on Monday lost a legal challenge to parts of Britain’s Online Safety Act, which sets tough new requirements for online platforms but has been criticised for potentially curtailing free speech.
The Wikimedia Foundation took legal action at London’s High Court over regulations made under the law, which it said could impose the most stringent duties on Wikipedia and require it to drastically reduce the number of users who can access the site.
