"The European public’s mobility has been increasing exponentially in recent years, on account of both their longevity and the EU’s eastwards expansion. As well as this increased mobility, the data belonging to each of us know ever fewer borders. The Internet, and social media in particular, have put our personal, professional and social data a click away. This situation represents the ease with which social media can invade many people’s privacy without them leaving their desks, but can also make the public more vulnerable. In fact, defamation cases are increasingly common internationally and it is essential to specify what legislation is applicable. This report includes recommendations to the Commission on the amendment of Regulation (EC) No 864/2007 on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations (Rome II). Although I believe these amendments could have a negative impact on freedom of expression, I voted in favour because the right to keep private life private needs to be balanced with the right to information. Moreover, I welcome the proposal to create an alternative system for settling disputes by mutual agreement."@en1
