Note that the issue only affects websites in EU legal jurisdiction. From the US legal standpoint means doing business in the EU. The body text has the qualification, but the headline does not.
The Court of Justice of the EU—likely without realizing it—just completely shit the bed and made it effectively impossible to run any website in the entirety of the EU that hosts user-generated content.
“in the entirety of the EU”
That’s kinda clickbaity.

You know how 4chan is doing business in the UK? In the same way, lemmy.today is doing business in the EU.
This ruling is not likely to have immediate consequences for the fediverse, since the GDPR is not enforced much.
I don’t think it is actually impossible, as the headline claims. Platforms that have already been on the receiving of enforcement are probably fine, eg Facebook.
