Abstract
[spa] Cada día, plataformas como las redes sociales bloquean una gran cantidad de contenidos subidos por sus usuarios, ya sea a través de mecanismos de inteligencia artificial pensados para detectar ilícitos, o mediante revisión humana, tras la notificación de terceros. Muy frecuentemente, los contenidos eliminados no son ilícitos y están amparados en la libertad de expresión, pero los mecanismos de los que gozan los usuarios para apelar las decisiones de las plataformas son ineficaces, incomprensibles, oscuros e incluso muchas veces inexistentes. En un momento en el que se plantea imponer nuevas obligaciones a las plataformas para la detección y bloqueo de contenidos ilícitos (vid. el art. 17.4 de la Directiva CDSM), se hace más necesaria que nunca una regulación que garantice los derechos y libertades fundamentales de los usuarios.
[eng] Every day, online platforms such as social media networks block a large amount of user generated content after being reviewed by artificial intelligence or claimed by third parties. Very often, this contents prove to be lawful (because they constitute freedom of expression), but the remedies available for users to appeal or challenge these decisions are usually inefective, incomprehensible, obscure and even many times nonexistent. At a time when it is proposed to establish new obligations to the platforms for the detection and blocking of illegal content (such as the art. 17 of the CDSM Directive), a regulation that guarantees the fundamental rights and freedoms of users becomes more necessary than ever.
