Az online dezinformáció megfékezésére tett európai kísérletek kritikája

Absztrakt

Leegyszerűsítve azt is mondhatnánk, hogy az információ hasznos, a dezinformáció káros – ám ahogyan a széles körű tájékozódásra nem lehet senkit kényszeríteni, úgy a megtévesztő tájékoztatást is szinte lehetetlen jogi eszközökkel elfojtani, de még csak megfékezni is. A nyilvánosságot biztosító csatornák (közösségi média, videomegosztók, keresőmotorok) és a tévinformációt közlők céljai, gazdasági érdekei – még ha nem is szándékosan, de – egymást erősíthetik. Mit tehet a jogalkotó a szólásszabadság aránytalan korlátozása nélkül, a befogadó a különféle szűrőbuborékokon áttörve, a médiavállalatok pedig a felhasználói élmény és a részvényeik árfolyamának csökkenése nélkül azért, hogy a közlemények valódisága könnyen és gyorsan felismerhetővé váljon, a dezinformáció elfogadása és továbbadása lecsökkenjen, a tájékoztatás pedig a tényeknek megfelelő legyen? Olykor a kúra súlyosabb következményekkel jár, mint maga a betegség. Jelen írás néhány olyan problémát emel ki, amely alkalmas a szólásszabadságra a dezinformáció problémájának kezelési kísérletei által előálló veszélyek illusztrálására, és igyekszik néhány óvatos javaslatot is megfogalmazni a dezinformációval kapcsolatos olyan szabályozásokra, amelyek nem korlátozzák indokolatlanul vagy aránytalanul az egyéni szólásszabadságot.
