How risky is the cooperation between platformers and the government, especially law enforcement agencies, such as the police? What are the risks with the cooperation?
The article examines the cooperation and risks by checking Japanese, German and EU legal situations to control harmful expressions on social media.
In Japan, there are no apparent rules for cooperation between platformers and police.
However, the police requested platformers stop a harmful account in the actual case. The author
thinks there needs to be some rules to control such activities by police.
“NetzDG” in Germany regulates platformers ahead of the other countries. Digital Services Act in the EU, which regulates platformers more widely than “NetzDG,” will be valid from 2024. Digital Services Act and “NetzDG” have a lot of methods in common, but there are some differences because they have differential purposes.
And the author also focuses on “Gesetz gegen digital Gewalt” as German new legal rules. The bill will still be considered, but it includes new regulations with the judicial proceedings to stop accounts for harmful speech.
Finally, the article shows the road map of cooperation and risks between the platformer and the government. There are differential risks in each phase of preventive police activities, grasping the key to crime and criminal investigation.
