Convicted sex offender in Norway appeals to Supreme Court for social media access as a human right.
A convicted sex offender in Norway is appealing to the country's Supreme Court to declare that social media access is a human right. The case involves a man who was sentenced to 13 months in prison for molesting a minor and using Snapchat to connect with young boys. His lawyers argue that banning him from social media violates the European Convention on Human Rights, as social media becomes vital for freedom of expression. The case raises questions about state restrictions on social media access, which are significant tools for exercising freedom of expression and maintaining social connections.
