Spain Tightens Influencer Law to Combat Fake News
Spain is introducing a bill mandating social media influencers with significant followings (100,000+ on one platform or 200,000+ across multiple) to publish corrections to false or inaccurate information. This legislation, aiming to combat online disinformation, will allow individuals harmed by misinformation to demand rectifications, escalating to court if ignored. The law updates outdated regulations and applies to both traditional and online media, facilitating a more streamlined process for requesting corrections. The initiative seeks to curb the spread of misinformation and hold those who disseminate it accountable.
