EU's response to disinformation online: Has regulation been effective?

TALKING EUROPE © FRANCE 24

While wars are fought between armies or militant groups, conflicts have their keyboard warriors too. It is estimated that more than half of the world uses social media, and many people do not go to traditional media as a source of information at all. As social media use increases, unease has grown among EU decision-makers about the power of these platforms to potentially distort people's view of the world. The EU has tried to regulate on disinformation through the Digital Services Act (DSA), but how successful has that effort been? Our panellists assess the impact of the DSA and raise other issues that are connected to disinformation, such as spyware and election interference.

Programme produced by Sophie Samaille, Isabelle Romero, Juliette Laurain and Perrine Desplats
