The EU Digital Services Act
Author: Folkert Wilman
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198892853
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 625
Book Description
The EU Regulation on a Single Market for Digital Services (Digital Services Act, the 'DSA') is a comprehensive legal framework to regulate digital services and to tackle illegal activity online across the European Union. The DSA represents one of the main pillars of the EU's reform of the digital single market. It applies horizontally to online intermediaries operating in the EU, including online platforms such as social media, video-sharing platforms, online marketplaces, and search engines. The EU Digital Services Act: A Commentary serves as a reference work on the DSA, written by experts who have been closely involved in all steps of the law-making process, from the preparation of the proposal to the final negotiations, as well as its subsequent elaboration and application. This commentary provides a comprehensive article-by-article analysis that will allow the reader to navigate the provisions of this new, complex legal act. While being novel, the DSA does not enter a completely unchartered territory: numerous provisions draw inspiration from, or are applied together with, the provisions of other Acts and areas of EU law. This Commentary explores the jurisprudential origins of the provisions of the DSA and their articulation with other EU Acts, which will be essential for its interpretation and application. With a foreword by Maciej Szpunar, the First Advocate General at the EU Court of Justice, The EU Digital Services Act: A Commentary strikes a balance between a practical commentary and an academic analysis, and is aimed at legal practitioners, academics, and public authorities.

Injunctions against Intermediaries in the European Union
Author: Martin Husovec
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108244467
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
In the European Union, courts have been expanding the enforcement of intellectual property rights by employing injunctions to compel intermediaries to provide assistance, despite no allegation of wrongdoing against these parties. These prospective injunctions, designed to prevent future harm, thus hold parties accountable where no liability exists. Effectively a new type of regulatory tool, these injunctions are distinct from the conventional secondary liability in tort. At present, they can be observed in orders to compel website blocking, content filtering, or disconnection, but going forward, their use is potentially unlimited. This book outlines the paradigmatic shift this entails for the future of the Internet and analyzes the associated legal and economic opportunities and problems.

The Brussels Effect
Author: Anu Bradford
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190088591
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
For many observers, the European Union is mired in a deep crisis. Between sluggish growth; political turmoil following a decade of austerity politics; Brexit; and the rise of Asian influence, the EU is seen as a declining power on the world stage. Columbia Law professor Anu Bradford argues the opposite in her important new book The Brussels Effect: the EU remains an influential superpower that shapes the world in its image. By promulgating regulations that shape the international business environment, elevating standards worldwide, and leading to a notable Europeanization of many important aspects of global commerce, the EU has managed to shape policy in areas such as data privacy, consumer health and safety, environmental protection, antitrust, and online hate speech. And in contrast to how superpowers wield their global influence, the Brussels Effect - a phrase first coined by Bradford in 2012- absolves the EU from playing a direct role in imposing standards, as market forces alone are often sufficient as multinational companies voluntarily extend the EU rule to govern their global operations. The Brussels Effect shows how the EU has acquired such power, why multinational companies use EU standards as global standards, and why the EU's role as the world's regulator is likely to outlive its gradual economic decline, extending the EU's influence long into the future.

The EU Digital Services Act (DSA)
Author: Milos Novovic
Publisher: Kluwer Law International B.V.
ISBN: 9403510870
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 782
Book Description
The EU Digital Services Act (DSA) provides a comprehensive framework regulating the provision of digital intermediary services in the EU internal market. It clarifies the conditions under which service providers can avoid being held liable for their users’ illegal content, establishes a set of harmonized duties they must follow, and sets broad safeguards for users’ rights. As an extensive article-by-article commentary, this book offers a comprehensive guide to the complex web of the DSA’s tightly intertwined provision. On a systemic level, it also contextualizes the DSA by exploring its relationship to other relevant legal instruments, such as those related to consumer protection, data protection, and private international law. Among the topics and issues addressed are the following: Liability and Content Moderation liability of online services which transmit, cache, or store illegal user content; rules on removing, reducing visibility of, or otherwise moderating content which is illegal or breaches terms of service; and acting against user content based on own investigations, governmental orders, or received notices, and rights and redress possibilities given to users. Service-Specific Obligations rules affecting profiling-based advertising, content recommendation systems, and user interface design; duties of platforms which disseminate user content, obligations of online consumer marketplaces, and exemptions for micro and small enterprises; novel transparency reporting duties, publication of databases and reports, and provision of access to platform data and algorithms; and duties of very large online platforms and search engines. Enforcement Framework competencies, tasks and powers of authorities and the EU Commission to monitor compliance, investigate infringements and impose sanctions; national, cross-border and European coordination, cooperation and enforcement mechanisms; and issues of jurisdiction and applicable law, and duties of providers established outside of the EU. Given the DSA’s scope, this book will be relevant to businesses of any size that handle user content. It will also be of great value to a broad audience of legal practitioners, public officials, civil society stakeholders, researchers, and content creators. All professionals working with user content management issues can use this book to gain valuable compliance insights.

Principles of the Digital Services Act
Author: Martin Husovec
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192882473
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
Numerous questions were at the heart of parliamentary discussions over the provisions of the Digital Services Act (DSA), the EU's new regulatory framework for digital services in Europe. How should liberal democracies prevent illegal and harmful activities online and protect fundamental rights? How should digital service providers assess the impact of their technology on others? And how should technology companies moderate user-generated content? Principles of the Digital Services Act analyses the DSA's key provisions, dissecting its mechanisms and components, to understand the new law's likely impact on digital services in Europe and beyond. The book puts the new legal framework into its political, economic, and social contexts by explaining its grounding within the frameworks of economic regulation and human rights. It examines the European legislature's approach to the DSA, offering a detailed historical account of the legislative and pre-legislative process. The book argues that the envisaged regulatory system has the potential to boost trust in the digital environment. However, its mechanisms must be able to rely on the robust network of civil society organisations and the regulators should follow a set of principles. In this way, the DSA's goal can be achieved through means that are firmly aligned with respect for individual liberties, including the freedom of expression. Combining academic research with practical insights, Principles of the Digital Services Act offers a robust analysis into how to apply and further develop the most important tools of the DSA to rebuild trust in the digital environment.
