In theory, the final sanction is that all UK ISPs are ordered to block access to those services. Which is a politically impossible move to make, and that above everything else exposes the utter absurdity of an individual jurisdiction trying to go after a multinational corporation that only exists online.

In simple terms nothing will happen, even if isps are told to block it you will still be able to access them via a vpn. It will just make even more users install a vpn.

I thought that the UK had adopted all EU legislation en masse??

Either way, if meta have breached the EU version of the Online Safety Act (OSA), it's likely that they will be in breach of the UK, the various American states and other countries who have their own versions of the OSA in place.

I'm sure that Ofcom will be keeping an eye on the outcome of this case.
