  • The Government approved a preliminary draft to change the Right of Rectification Law.
  • This measure comes at a time of high suspicion and criticism towards the Executive.
  • The proposed plan could require social media users with more than 100,000 followers to rectify falsehoods or inaccuracies.
  • This proposition potentially equates incomplete but truthful news with false news.
  • There is concern over who will decide what is truth and what is a lie.

Conclusion: This new governmental plan faces major criticism and suspicion, and raises questions about the breadth and potential abuse of the right to rectification.
