How much are you willing to pay per post to post on HN? Because that's what you're basically asking for. If you force companies to vet every single post a user makes and they have to take responsibility for it, then they'll have a rather substantial monetary value attached to each post you make.

Nothing. HN is exempt because pg doesn't profit off these posts.

Anyone care to strongman my argument? Or just strawman?

If this doesn't impact non-profits, why do you think Wikimedia is against it? Are they simply uninformed?
