The explosion of social media in recent years has allowed new actors to reach larger audiences but raised concerns about a lack of regulation and the spread of fake news.The draft law replaces legislation from 1984 and targets internet users who have more than 100,000 followers on a single platform or 200,000 across several, the justice ministry said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>These outlets and the platforms that host them must have a mechanism to facilitate citizens\u2019 right to ask that false or inaccurate information that harms them be corrected publicly, the ministry said. The correction request will no longer have to be addressed to the outlet\u2019s director because confirming their identity is difficult for many \u201cpseudo media\u201d, justice minister F\u00e9lix Bola\u00f1os told a press conference. \u201cWe\u2019re making life more difficult for those who dedicate themselves to lies and spreading fake news every day, and, therefore, it is good news for democracy,\u201d Bola\u00f1os added.<\/p>\n<p>Consumer rights association FACUA welcomed the announcement, saying it allowed people to \u201cundertake measures in defence of their honour\u201d. The government has frequently lashed out at online platforms for spreading what it describes as politically motivated \u201cfilth\u201d targeting Socialist prime minister Pedro S\u00e1nchez and his family.<\/p>\n<p>Fighting disinformation is part of the government\u2019s plan for \u201cdemocratic renewal\u201d, launched earlier this year after a judge began investigating S\u00e1nchez\u2019s wife, Bego\u00f1a G\u00f3mez, for alleged corruption and influence peddling. A group with far-right ties that submitted the complaint admitted it was based on unverified media reports. The bill must go through a consultation phase before being put before parliament.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2024\/dec\/17\/spain-introduces-bill-to-combat-online-fake-news\">The Guardian<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/spain-introduces-bill-to-combat-online-fake-news\/\">Spain introduces bill to combat online fake news<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1338,17371,1102,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-136121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-bill","tag-combat-online-fake-news","tag-spain","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136121","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=136121"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136121\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=136121"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=136121"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=136121"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
