Session teaser

Are human rights, including right to privacy, being redefined by the economics of the Internet?

Session description

Internet intermediaries have created new services which challenge traditional industries leading them to call for regulatory intervention. The European Union and many European countries are considering legal changes which many civil society groups fear could hurt core human rights and fundamental values, including non-discrimination, right to freedom of opinion and expression and right to privacy.  

How do liability protections for Internet companies, implemented by EU and Council of Europe member states, safeguard the rights and freedoms of European Internet users? What efforts are governments making, and how do they dialogue with industry and civil society, to address challenges to online rights and freedoms of their citizens?

Keywords

digital economy, intermediary liability, protections and safeguards for users/consumers, right to freedom of opinion and expression, right to privacy, the Council of Europe, the European Union, the EU e-Commerce Directive

Format

Until 30 April 2016. Please try new interactive formats out. EuroDIG is about dialogue not about statements.
