Résumé
The Internet has great potential for development. It provides an unprecedented amount of resources for information and knowledge, which opens up new opportunities for citizens to express their opinions and participate in the management of public affairs. In this case, the following situation arises. On the one hand, the principle of freedom of expression in the context of the development of human rights should be applied to the development of democracy, including through the Internet environment. On the other hand, the free flow of information leads to the threat of free circulation of potentially dangerous information, including extremist information, as well as to the possibility of influencing public opinion by introducing propaganda into the network. Thus, the Internet has a significant impact on the public sphere, therefore, cyberspace must have the same level of protection as the right to express one's opinion in the physical world. In the conditions of the information society, the development of global information and communication networks, the system of global information exchange, the absence of physical boundaries in the virtual space and virtually complete freedom and anonymity on the Internet, the current legal regulation of freedom of speech, in our opinion, does not correspond to the level of development of public relations insofar as since it allows the existence of the so-called 'information war', the predominance of information that has not received a proper legal assessment. The mere fact that there are no legal instruments that can prevent falsification of information in the media speaks about serious problems in ensuring the quality of information, as well as in ensuring the right of citizens to freedom of expression in cyberspace. The purpose of the study is a comprehensive systematic theoretical and practical analysis of the essence of the constitutional-legal category freedom of opinion in the context of the expression of this category in cyberspace; identifying trends in the development of traditional and introducing new forms of practical expression of this right; formulating an author's model to regulate the right of citizens to freedom of opinion in cyberspace, as well as developing theoretical provisions and practical recommendations aimed at improving constitutional legislation in the field under study.
