This master’s thesis analyzes the impact of the Digital Services Act (DSA) on the protection of fundamental human rights in a rapidly evolving online environment. The thesis identifies three rights that are at the greatest risk: freedom of expression, protection of personal data, and the right to an effective legal remedy. The paper analyzes measures enshrined in the DSA, such as content moderation rules and increased algorithm transparency, to determine their effectiveness in combating systemic threats in the digital environment. In assessing the proportionality of the SPA’s measures, the study concludes that the restrictions imposed are not excessive. They serve as “protective restrictions” which, although they narrow providers’ commercial freedom or users’ personalization options, effectively restore decision-making autonomy to service recipients and protect them from algorithmic manipulation. The results show that the SPA successfully reconciles technological progress with the provisions of the Charter of Fundamental Rights, but practical implementation risks remain. |
