I'll admit I have not read deeply into this issue, but on the surface I think it is an excellent idea. It's time to start pushing back on this descent into disinformation idiocracy. Whether this is the best place to start I don't know, but it does not seem unreasonable to me.
We already have laws related to deceptive marketing, but I suspect enforcement is consumer driven, which does not apply very well to some of this.
If companies are rushing to take down information, that suggests to me that there is likely a lot of snake oil out there. While it would be a burden to deal with, there would also be no better marketing than to successfully defend yourself against this - especially as one of the first cases. I would be excited - not scared by this (if I were legitimate).

That’s not always the case that there was so much disinformation out there, it can be, and is in this case that the legislation was written with such a bias and open end that nobody is really sure where the ground is now.
Believe it or not there are good companies out there, trying to do good work in emissions reduction who don’t know what they are able to say right now. That’s a bad state to be in and the Feds caused this.
