In a significant move towards combating online hate speech, various online platforms including X and Meta have signed a new code of conduct embedded within the European Commission's Digital Services Act (DSA). Established to create a safer digital environment, the DSA encourages voluntary measures for online platforms to address hate speech while upholding freedom of expression. Despite ongoing investigations into their practices, major platforms have collectively committed to these guidelines. The European Commission aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the code and adapt it as necessary to meet its objectives.
The new code of conduct offers a way for online platforms to collaboratively tackle hate speech online while ensuring user protection within the framework of the Digital Services Act.
The revised Code of conduct on countering illegal hate speech online aims to balance the fight against online hate while preserving freedom of expression among users.
