His research explores how technologies that produce or distribute public-interest content (such as news and political speech) should be regulated. He explores legal questions around political microtargeting, algorithmic transparency, platforms’ editorial responsibilities, and how European law can safeguard media freedom and democratic discourse in a media environment dominated by large technology companies.
