Private companies exert considerable control over the flow of
information on the internet. Whether users are finding information
with a search engine, communicating on a social networking site or
accessing the internet through an ISP, access to participation can
be blocked, channelled, edited or personalised. Such gatekeepers
are powerful forces in facilitating or hindering freedom of
expression online. This is problematic for a human rights system
which has historically treated human rights as a government
responsibility, and this is compounded by the largely light-touch
regulatory approach to the internet in the West. Regulating Speech
in Cyberspace explores how these gatekeepers operate at the
intersection of three fields of study: regulation (more broadly,
law), corporate social responsibility and human rights. It proposes
an alternative corporate governance model for speech regulation,
one that acts as a template for the increasingly common use of
non-state-based models of governance for human rights.
