\nFighting illegal content on the Internet, such as illegal drug sales, gambling, and disinformation, is a major 21st-century issue for politicians and lawyers. The recent surge in disinformation, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing war in Ukraine, has exacerbated these challenges.

Most debates focus on what to fight rather than how to fight it. Internet content regulation is one method, considered the most invasive regarding fundamental rights. In the Visegrad countries, with about 90% household internet connectivity (Eurostat, 2023), internet content regulation impacts everyone\u2019s rights to information and freedom of expression. The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) emphasizes the internet's role in these rights. Visegrad states lack a uniform approach to blocking methods and standards. This project examines these regulations, contrasting them with ECtHR case law, which demands thorough legal frameworks with sufficient defense means.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

It addresses who can challenge unjustified blocking and explores procedural and substantial uniformity amid varying definitions of disinformation. Beyond ECtHR case law, the project incorporates soft-law contexts and explores the European dimension. The goal is to propose a legal framework for the Visegrad states that aligns with CJEU and ECtHR standards, considering their similar historical contexts and institutional memberships. This framework aims to balance combating illegal content and protecting fundamental human rights while countering disinformation and misinformation and enhancing societal resilience.\u00a0Our deliverables consist of:\n<\/div>
