In this in-depth analysis, Andrea Renda argues that the current policy initiatives adopted by the European Commission are meaningful, but still incomplete. The policy response to online disinformation should ideally rely on: i) the promotion of responsible behaviour in conveying information to end users; ii) the enactment of a proactive media policy aimed at promoting pluralism and improving the exposure of diverse content to end users; and iii) the empowerment of end users through media literacy initiatives, and supports to user behaviour.
