✨With the EU Commission & the HUMANads ERC, in the past 6 months Sophie Bishop (Leeds) & I have been developing the 1st European legal training for influencers/content creators & EU consumer law. We're launching the Influencer Legal Hub on 16 October. Join us! https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_AL8oHoy9SjCudgar0343Qw#/registration
Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Launching the Influencer Legal Hub. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

The European Commission is proud to launch the Influencer Legal Hub, a free library of resources on European consumer law applicable to influencers who are based in or engage with audiences in the European Union. This first of its kind initiative was developed in collaboration with academic experts. The library includes a collection of short animated training videos, supported by a range of other resources designed to make the law more accessible to influencers, their agents and managers as well as the general public. As the official launch of the Influencer Legal Hub, this webinar brings together representatives of the European Commission, academic experts, journalists, national consumer authorities and organisations, as well as industry representatives, who will present and discuss the Influencer Legal Hub, and address the importance of compliance with EU consumer protection laws. The webinar programme with invited speakers and Zoom link will be sent to you upon the confirmation of your registration. Influencer Legal Hub [email protected]

I have a new article explaining everything you need to know about how advertisers influence social media governance - a key factor shaping today's online media that imo hasn't been analysed enough:

▶️ what is 'brand safety'? how does it shape moderation, platform design etc & why does this matter?
▶️ how is the brand safety landscape currently evolving?
▶️ how is this all regulated in the DSA? (if you know me you'll be shocked to hear: not very well)

From brand safety to suitability: advertisers in platform governance

Advertisers’ concerns about “brand safety” and “brand suitability” are an underappreciated influence on social media platforms’ content governance, with concerning implications for social equality and the freedom of public debate online.
