    EU Health Place - Social Network for Health

    • 01/06/2021

    Balancing Human Rights Online Through “Action” Regulation If we are to effectively modulate the benefits and harms from social networks and misinformation, there is an inherent value in the “audacious” idea of creating a publicly owned social network at the EU level.
