In the digital age, internet platforms operate as vital arteries of the global economy, where creativity, information, and commerce converge. However, the increasing circulation of content and the rise of business models based on dissemination and streaming have led to a surge in intellectual property rights infringements. The Notice and Take Down mechanism has become a key tool for safeguarding rights holders’ interests, allowing for the swift removal or deactivation of illicit content following proper notification.
Our panel proposes a reflective and comparative overview of the regulatory experiences across various Latin American jurisdictions, analyzing current legal frameworks, case law, and platform self-regulation practices. We aim to outline a proposed regional regulatory model that balances the protection of rights with freedom of expression and technological innovation, promoting a sustainable equilibrium between the interests of rights holders and digital intermediaries. The discussion will include platform liability, reasonable response times, process transparency, and safeguards against abuse, with the goal of providing legal operators in the region with a clear and effective framework.
