What is the limits of regulation?Show answer
Regulation struggles to keep pace with media change. Rules designed for broadcast and print apply unevenly to online platforms, social media and global content, where messages cross borders and platforms host material they did not create. Persuasive content can travel through channels that fall between regulatory regimes, and enforcement is difficult when producers are anonymous or overseas. These gaps mean persuasive media can sometimes evade the controls that would apply elsewhere, which is a key contemporary issue.
