A Safer Internet Should Not Come with Democratic Shortcuts

Tech Policy Press has published an opinion piece arguing that efforts to make the internet safer should not come at the cost of democratic accountability. The article contends that policymakers risk bypassing proper democratic procedures when they pursue online safety measures, warning that regulation of the internet must remain subject to open debate and oversight rather than expedited or technocratic decision-making.

Why now: Ongoing debates over online safety legislation and internet regulation have raised concerns about democratic oversight being sidestepped.
