Abstract

Whether and how to regulate companies that provide social media or search services are key questions that governments around the world are grappling with, as both users and regulators worry about the extent of these tech giants’ influence. The UK government released a white paper on the regulation of ‘online harms’ for consultation in April 2019, and received more than 2,400 responses. Glasgow’s Philip Schlesinger and Martin Kretschmer write about their research on the complex landscape of platform regulation in the UK.
