Abstract:

 This research addresses the critical balance between freedom of expression and protection against digital incitement to violence on decentralized digital platforms. Freedom of expression is recognized as a fundamental right, yet it is not absolute and is subject to legitimate restrictions according to international standards. The study examines the European regulatory model for digital platforms as an advanced example, while acknowledging the complex technical and legislative challenges involved. It emphasizes the need to distribute responsibility among states, platforms, civil society, and users. The research highlights the dangerous role of artificial intelligence in spreading hate speech at unprecedented speeds, as noted in UNESCO's 2022 report. It concludes that achieving balance requires an integrated approach combining clear legislation, neutral enforcement mechanisms, fair technical systems, and continuous community education to protect both fundamental rights and social stability.
