Abstract

The advent of social media platforms has revolutionized the way people communicate and express themselves globally. However, this technological advancement has brought forth complex challenges concerning freedom of expression. This abstract delves into the multifaceted nature of freedom of expression in the realm of social media, exploring its evolution, implications, and efforts to balance it with other societal values. Initially hailed as a beacon of free speech, social media has become a battleground where diverse interests clash, raising concerns about misinformation, hate speech, and censorship. The unrestricted nature of social media has empowered individuals to amplify their voices, yet it has also provided a platform for the dissemination of harmful content and the suppression of dissenting opinions.
