Abstract

Peter Mascini and Franziska Weber study the user perspective with a view to different forms of content moderation on social media in a representative survey of the Dutch population in the age group 18-35. They find mixed support for the hypothesis that trust in a particular actor operating in the regulatory space of the governance triangle – for profit, not-for profit and public moderation – is positively related to support for a mode of content moderation dominated by the very same actor. They consequently relate their findings to Michael’s work on smart mixes.
