A review of political advertising online during the 2019 European Elections and establishing future regulatory requirements in Ireland

Niamh Kirk et al.

Summary: The lack of regulation on online political advertising before the 2019 European Parliament elections raised concerns about the integrity of the electoral process. The European Commission engaged with social media platforms to establish a voluntary Code of Practice on Disinformation to ensure transparent, fair, and trustworthy online campaign activities. Though platforms like Facebook, Google, and Twitter committed to this, inconsistencies in their approach resulted in a lack of transparency in political advertising during the election campaigns.
