The so-called ‘Digital Services Act’ is a new European Union (EU) law that regulates online content moderation. Arguably now one of the world’s biggest threats to free speech, this law essentially allows the bloc to declare a state of emergency on the internet. Doing so would enable it to impose stringent controls on key digital services such as social media platforms, search engines, and e-commerce sites.
As a result, major websites, social media platforms, and service providers can henceforth be forced to censor information whenever a state of emergency is declared by the EU. Crises related to public health issues such as pandemics are specifically referred to in the Act. The resulting restrictions would not only apply within Europe but also to large sites and digital platforms worldwide that are accessible to European citizens.
