The facilitators start with a small presentation on the way privacy and security in media is being shaped around the world. During this part of the presentation, the facilitator includes many examples on hot topics, like GDPR and CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act). During this part the facilitator is also addressing the participants and encourages them to state what their opinion about these regulations may be and how their life is affected by them. During the presentation the participants should be informed about existing efforts to combat disinformation as well as the steps that countries (e.g. China, Germany, Israeli or Turkey) have taken to combat misinformation and to discuss the limit between protecting citizens’ rights and violating privacy rights. At the end of the discussion the facilitator makes concluding remarks. Does GDPR make the web safer? Do I have control over my data? Is it easy to maintain a balance between the freedom of speech and privacy/security regulations? Are the steps that we have taken so far in the right direction?
