The bolts and nuts of online content regulation in Tanzania

ABSTRACT Legal and non-legal commenters across the world have criticised the promulgation of the Tanzanian Electronic and Postal Communications (Online Content) Regulations of 2018. The Regulations regulate inter alia online content, online content service providers, online content hosts, and users by imposing certain obligations, including the moderation of content. One of the criticisms raised by various commentators is that the law restricts access to information and freedom of expression. This article examines the purpose and content of the Electronic and Postal Communications (Online Content) Regulations,to determine whether they conform to the law-making standards: legality, legitimacy, legal certainty; and the international standards of fundamental rights. In the end, this article recommends areas that may need revision.

期刊介绍： The last decade has seen the introduction of computers and information technology at many levels of human transaction. Information technology (IT) is now used for data collation, in daily commercial transactions like transfer of funds, conclusion of contract, and complex diagnostic purposes in fields such as law, medicine and transport. The use of IT has expanded rapidly with the introduction of multimedia and the Internet. Any new technology inevitably raises a number of questions ranging from the legal to the ethical and the social. Information & Communications Technology Law covers topics such as: the implications of IT for legal processes and legal decision-making and related ethical and social issues.
