The influence of mass media on the informational and psychological state of a person

Abstract

The article examines the impact of mass media on the informational and psychological state of a person. The role of specific mechanisms and procedures for the protection of generally defined rights in connection with changes in Ukrainian legislation is investigated, and different approaches of specialists to the problem of liability in the Internet of Law are also mentioned. In the context of our topic, the article analyzes the Convention on the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The contentious nature of the means operating on the Internet determines the lack of legal mechanisms to control activities in the virtual space. We also analyze issues related to white relevant legislation, a clearly defined list of subjects of activity on the Internet and their legal status. Real courts against the rights of a person who are violated on the Internet cannot be fully ensured.
 In the article, we talk about the fact that network information processes are characterized by wide audience coverage, high efficiency, and a variety of forms of information influence due to the presence of feedback from the user to the information provider.
 Such a combination leads to the fact that global computer networks become a powerful tool of expression and formation of public opinion. In this capacity, they approach traditional means in terms of capabilities, and in some cases surpass them. Human life in the information society inevitably makes it more transparent for the state and society, so the desire to preserve information privacy is becoming more and more tangible. New technologies have significantly simplified the collection, processing, storage, and transmission of data, and on the other hand, they have created obvious threats of illegal circulation, which leads to violations of individual rights.
 We analyze online publications that are not limited by anything and most often abuse the freedom granted to them, which is why there is an urgent need for legal regulation of relations arising in the field of freedom of mass information. On the one hand, the basic law of the state enshrines the right to express one's opinion, freedom of thought and speech.
