Abstract

Modern social networks have become a place for many civil law relations, leading to various problems that require proper regulation. The thesis includes a discussion of confidentiality, cyberbullying and harassment, defamation, the spread of misinformation and fake news, algorithmic bias and discrimination, user agreements and consent, and accountability of social media platforms. Analyzing these issues provides a holistic understanding of the challenges that lawyers, legislators and users face when trying to ensure law and justice in the digital environment.
