title = {Quasi-Judicial Oversight Mechanisms for Social Platforms – A Conversation with Catalina Botero Marino, Co-Chair of the Oversight Board –},
year = {2021},
note = {The spread of misinformation and hate speech has led to calls for a
more active role of social networks when it comes to curating content.
Others fear censorship and arbitrariness. In this stormy debate, Meta
decided to share the responsibility for the enforcement of its
community guidelines by setting up the Oversight Board (OB), an
independent body which can review decisions taken by Meta on the
removal of posts and blocking of users. Erik Tuchtfeld interviews
Catalina Botero Marino, the former Special Rapporteur for Freedom of
Expression for the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR)
and current co-chair of the Oversight Board, on how the Board is
composed and in how far its composition reflects the global nature of
Meta’s platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. The interview deals
with the relationship and parallels to national courts. Also, the
importance of international human rights instruments, the principle of
proportionality and particular difficulties with public statements by
government officials are discussed.},
