Resumo
Pode a democracia sobreviver à internet é uma pergunta vital. Está o debate político online a
deteriorar o processo democrático, com o aumento do extremismo e polarização?
Democracias liberais assentam em liberdades como a de expressão. O usufruto desta é
condição para outras formas de liberdade, e é crucial para uma sociedade informada e
participativa em processos de deliberação política. Sempre existiram condicionalismos a
liberdade de expressão e ao debate público, em forma de testes para determinar limites para
censura de discurso e de conteúdos. Para isso foram determinados princípios como de
ofensa, dano e discurso de ódio. Com a emergência de plataformas de redes sociais, em
especial Facebook e Twitter, houve uma transferência do debate político da praça pública
para o mundo digital. Isso levanta questões sobre normas, regulamentos e legislação, a
necessidade de reforçar a arena de discussão e o mercado de ideias, e ter uma especial
atenção ao funcionamento de algoritmos e arquiteturas digitais. Os objetivos desta
Dissertação são de perceber quais as ameaças à liberdade de expressão e possibilidade em
participar no debate político online, assim como quais são os passos necessários para reforçar
a segurança, garantir acesso, e democratizar o processo.

Liberal democracies are based on freedoms such as freedom of expression and it’s a condition for other forms of freedom It’s also crucial for an informed and participative society in political deliberation processes. There have always been constraints on freedom of expression and public debate, in the form of tests to determine limits for censoring discourse and content. For this, principles such as offense, harm and hate speech were determined. With the emergence of social media platforms, especially Facebook and Twitter, the political debate has shifted from the public square to the digital world. This raises questions about rules, regulations and legislation, the need to strengthen the discussion arena and the market for ideas, and to pay special attention to the operation of digital architectures and algorithms. The objectives of this Dissertation are to understand the threats to freedom of expression and the possibility of participating in the online political debate, as well as what are the necessary steps to strengthen security, guarantee access, and democratize the process.
