platform governance

Platform governance refers to the rules and practices that guide how online platforms, like social media or marketplaces, operate and manage user interactions. It involves setting policies on content moderation, user privacy, data management, and fair practices to ensure a safe and fair environment for users. Effective governance balances freedom of expression with the need to prevent harm, misinformation, or abuse. It is crucial for maintaining trust between users and the platform, ensuring compliance with laws, and addressing the unique challenges posed by digital interactions in a rapidly evolving online landscape.
