Web of Words: The Boundaries of Digital Expression - (Episode 93)

Welcome to this episode of our podcast! In this episode, we’re diving deep into one of the most complex and pressing issues in the digital era: freedom of speech on the Internet. The Internet was once heralded as a global platform where anyone could express their thoughts, share ideas, and connect freely across borders. But with the rapid growth of digital platforms and the complex mix of regulations, corporate policies, and evolving societal norms, this ideal has been both challenged and redefined.
We’ll explore the dynamics of free speech in the digital world—where are the lines drawn, who decides what can be said, and how these decisions impact individuals, communities, and entire societies. We’ll discuss the roles of social media platforms, government regulations, and the ongoing debate over censorship versus safety. Join us as we untangle the web of digital expression and ask the tough questions: What does freedom of speech really mean online, and is it possible to achieve true freedom in a connected world?
