Social Media Law and Ethics

Lipschultz’s second edition is a tour de force combining intellectual rigor with real-world relevance, addressing contemporary challenges—from freedom of expression and copyright law to generative AI and government censorship, including timely issues like the U.S. TikTok law. In a time when the interplay between social media and ethical practice is more critical than ever, this text is essential for anyone looking to navigate current and future media law and ethics trends.
