| dc.description.abstract | With the rise of digital platforms, regulators around the world are fighting against global platforms such as Facebook, Google, etc., in order to resolve all kind of issues. While Google plays a significant role in people’s lives with its search engine service, it has also been accused of market abuse and others violations of laws. Therefore, the European Union has adopted various regulatory approaches to protect personal data, privacy, copyrights and address issues related to Google’s monopoly. However, the discussion concerning Google fundamental’s right are limited within the context of these regulations.
This article, therefore, seeks to strike a balance between the regulatory approaches of the United States and the European Union towards Google, considering both its fundamental rights and the need for state regulations. This article analyzes the development of the legal system of the traditional media through the U.S. freedom of press, examining the Fourth Estate theory as the fundamental concept for press freedom. Additionally, it employs democratic theory to emphasize the importance of emerging media in democratic politics and explores the editorial discretion exercised by traditional media.
Furthermore, this article addresses whether Google′s search results and rankings should be protected under the freedom of expression, before delving into an analysis of Google′s own freedom of expression and editorial discretion.
Finally, this article illustrates various regulatory measures implemented by different countries against Google and whether it is possible to exclude the countries’ infringement by asserting the fundamental rights of the Constitution when Google is improperly interfered. | en_US |
