Think about it: it's not the companies who wrote that stuff. How does fining the companies actually change anything when it comes to radicalization and terrorism threats which surround the author(s)?
People should be held accountable for their own actions, and when companies are operating as the messenger then they should be treated as such.
When you get a nasty e-mail are you going to complain to your Internet provider?
When you're being harassed through snail-mail are you going to tell your lawyer to sue the postal service?
Because that's exactly what the EU is trying to do here.
