SUMMARY:The weaponisation of freedom of expression
DESCRIPTION:HumanRightsThe last decade has seen an explosion of content o
 n social and traditional media designed to sow misinformation and social
  division. Whether tied to Covid\, elections\, climate change\, national
 ism\, or other hot button issues\, the content - some of it deliberately
  generated by rival states for geopolitical advantage - is fuelling such
  divorced realities that it threatens international stability. In respon
 se\, many countries are considering or have implemented laws and regulat
 ions to control "misinformation" online. But is it possible for the law 
 to distinguish between weaponized misinformation and the organic dialogu
 e necessary for the democratic process? Can the law provide a response w
 ithout infringing on fundamental human rights? Or do these cures pose gr
 eater risks than the disease?
