SUMMARY:Social media and free expression
DESCRIPTION:The rise of social media has transformed the global landscape
  of free expression — but it has also raised complex criminal law and hu
 man rights questions. This panel will explore the tensions between freed
 om of speech\, online safety and the prevention of crime in the digital 
 age. Topics include the criminalisation of online hate speech and disinf
 ormation\, state regulation of digital platforms\, and the responsibilit
 ies of social media companies in balancing free expression with harm pre
 vention. The discussion will also consider recent case law\, jurisdictio
 nal challenges and the role of criminal justice systems in safeguarding 
 both liberty and accountability in the online sphere.
