Financial Coercion Enables Speech Suppression

This provision creates escalating administrative penalties (500 units + 100 units per day indefinitely) for non-compliance with Division orders, which can require removal of content deemed misinformation, disinformation, or confidential information. The cumulative daily penalties create overwhelming financial pressure to comply with orders before any independent judicial review, functioning as a de facto censorship mechanism. Critically, 76 transforms administrative non-compliance into criminal liability (200-500 penalty units + 1 month imprisonment) for private facts and confidential information violations, creating a dual-track enforcement system. The Division—headed by a Presidential appointee—both adjudicates violations and collects penalties, creating structural bias. This penalty structure enables suppression of protected speech, including government criticism and investigative journalism, by making non-compliance financially unsustainable regardless of whether the underlying speech is constitutionally protected.
