Abstract
A core challenge for media economics in the digital age is to establish frameworks that neither endanger user safety nor undermine the diversity of information. Hate speech, misinformation and sensationalism must not take over, yet freedom of opinion and expression must remain intact. To bolster digital media security, researchers explore multiple measures. Counter-speech, content moderation, shifts in economic structures, and educational initiatives are discussed as promising strategies. These measures are not mutually exclusive and should be pursued in parallel.
