The main themes addressed in the report are freedom of expression and its possible limitations, the prohibition of hate speech, and freedom of voters to form an opinion. The report addresses the ways of reconciling rather than opposing them. Protecting freedom of expression and the electoral process from informational manipulation and hate are not incompatible goals; on the contrary, they complement each other in the defence of a pluralistic democracy, where opinions clash robustly but without resorting to discrimination against individuals or groups.
