You seem to be under the illusion that this is a well written law, that actually achieves its creators objectives.
All of the evidence so far points in quite the opposite direction.
A companies TOS form a contract between the user and the company, this law is just requires that companies follow what’s written in a contract they will fully entered into.
To claim that this is an infringement of speech is to claim that there’s no situation where a court can force someone to perform, as required by a contract they entered into. In other words, it’s to say that any court enforcing a civil contract is defacto infringing upon that persons right to free speech. Clearly that’s ridiculous because it would totally undermine the value of any signed contract.
