国家当局采取了不同的监管解决方案，试图将假新闻和相关信息混乱的不利影响降至最低。本文审查了近年来出现的三种不同的监管方法--信息更正、内容删除或屏蔽以及刑事制裁--并根据循证心理分析，批判性地评估了它们对国际人权法适用规则的规范性遵守情况及其可能的有效性。它认为，刑事制裁是一种有效的监管应对措施，但与直觉相反，如果以一种处理要保护的合法利益的方式进行仔细的调整，就可以证明这一点是合理的。
National authorities have responded with different regulatory solutions in attempts to minimise the adverse impact of fake news and associated information disorder. This article reviews three different regulatory approaches that have emerged in recent years-information correction, content removal or blocking, and criminal sanctions-and critically evaluates their normative compliance with the applicable rules of international human rights law and their likely effectiveness based on an evidence-based psychological analysis. It identifies, albeit counter intuitively, criminal sanction as an effective regulatory response that can be justified when it is carefully tailored in a way that addresses legitimate interests to be protected.
