​

In this article, Lauren Ní Fhloinn critically examines the impact of the Digital Services
Act (DSA). Acknowledging that the act is on the cusp of being fully implemented,
Lauren balances the scholarly debates on whether the DSA might go too far, posing

article addresses the question of freedom of expression in the Digital Age and
touches upon recent events that tested the DSA’s impact.
