Fighting Extremism And Terrorism On Social Media Platforms: The Possibilities
And Limitations Of The EU’s Digital Services Act

An Event Hosted by CEP and the DGAP



(New York, N.Y. / Berlin) – The German Council on Foreign Relations (DGAP) and
the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) cordially invite you to a hybrid panel
discussion:



“Fighting Extremism And Terrorism On Social Media Platforms: The Possibilities
And Limitations Of The EU’s Digital Services Act”



On November 16, the EU’s long-awaited Digital Services Act (DSA) came into
force. It aims to curb the spread of online hate speech, disinformation and
extremist and terrorist content with which democratic societies are
increasingly confronted.



At this event, we will explore the implications of the DSA combating extremism
on social media platforms. How will it affect existing national regulations
such as Germany’s Network Enforcement Act (Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz
(NetzDG))? How will the new legislation impact the technological aspects of the
fight against online extremism? How is extremist infrastructure adapting online
in the face of regulation? We look forward to discussing these and further
questions with you.
