Platform Regulations

Platform regulations are rules set by governments or authorities to govern how online platforms—like social media sites, marketplaces, and app stores—operate. They aim to ensure these platforms are safe, fair, and transparent, protecting users from issues like misinformation, privacy violations, or harmful content. These regulations may require platforms to moderate content responsibly, disclose data practices, and address consumer rights. The goal is to balance innovation with accountability, fostering trust and safeguarding public interests while allowing technological progress and economic growth.
