Spain Proposes Bill to Combat Disinformation

The Government has unveiled a new bill that requires digital platforms and social media influencers to publish corrections for false information.

The draft law targets users with large followings and aims to enhance accountability.

Justice Minister Félix Bolaños stated that the bill will benefit democracy by making it harder for those spreading known mistruths.

The legislation comes amid concerns over the spreading of misinformation on social and unregulated media.
