В настоящее время интернет-платформы могут контролировать способность самовыражения миллиардов пользователей сети Интернет, в том числе российских. Концентрация наиболее популярных платформ в США, где сложился вакуум правового регулирования интернет-платформ, которые пользуются правовой защитой в качестве распространителей информации наряду с прессой и другими видами СМИ, привела к тому, что интернет-платформы активно создают систему цензуры информации, тщательно маскируя такую цензуру и придавая ей вид добросовестной модерации, направленной на борьбу с экстремизмом, недостоверной информацией, агрессией и другими противоправными явлениями. Цензура в своем цифровом воплощении принципиально отличается от цензуры, существовавшей в прошлом. Если ранее она была основана на нормативном регулировании и подробно регламентирована, то в настоящее время она скрыта и использует новые технические возможности. Являясь порождением американской политической системы, цензура со стороны интернет-платформ основана на политических предпочтениях их руководства. Используя историко-правовой анализ, в том числе анализируя историю цензуры начиная с момента ее появления и превращения в государственный институт, автор приводит к выводу о том, что цензура со стороны интернет-платформ представляет собой новый, ранее детально не описанный феномен, требующий отражения в законодательстве с целью обеспечения защиты конституционных прав пользователей. Эффективная защита конституционных прав интернет-пользователей невозможна без законодательного запрета цензуры со стороны интернет-платформ, международного сотрудничества, направленного на борьбу с данным явлением.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Internet platforms have considerable power over information flows on a global scale in the conditions of mass digitalization of modern life. Currently, Internet platforms can control the ability of self-expression of billions of Internet users, including Russian ones. The concentration of the most popular platforms in the United States, where there is a vacuum of legal regulation of Internet platforms that enjoy legal protection as distributors of information along with the press and other types of media, has led to the fact that Internet platforms are actively creating a system of censorship of information, carefully masking such censorship and giving it the appearance of conscientious moderation aimed at combating extremism, false information, aggression, and other illegal phenomena. Censorship in its digital incarnation is fundamentally different from censorship that existed in the past. If earlier censorship used to be based on normative regulation and was regulated in detail, now it is hidden and it uses new technical opportunities. Being a product of the American political system, Internet platforms censorship is based on the political preferences of their leadership. Using historical and legal analysis, including analysis of the history of censorship since its appearance and transformation into the state institution, the author concludes that Internet platforms censorship represents a new phenomenon that has not been described in detail before, requiring reflection in legislation in order to ensure protection of the constitutional rights of users. Effective protection of the constitutional rights of Internet users is impossible without legislative prohibition of Internet platforms censorship and international cooperation aimed at combating this phenomenon.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>законодательство</kwd><kwd>информация</kwd><kwd>цензура</kwd><kwd>интернет-платформы</kwd><kwd>цифровые права</kwd><kwd>социальные сети</kwd><kwd>свобода слова</kwd><kwd>СМИ</kwd><kwd>экстремизм</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>legislation</kwd><kwd>information</kwd><kwd>censorship</kwd><kwd>Internet platforms</kwd><kwd>digital rights</kwd><kwd>social networks</kwd><kwd>freedom of speech</kwd><kwd>mass media</kwd><kwd>extremism</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Статья подготовлена в ходе проведения исследования в рамках Программы фундаментальных исследований Национального исследовательского университета «Высшая школа экономики» (НИУ ВШЭ).</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The paper was prepared during the research within the framework of the Fundamental Research Program of the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE).</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Гращенков И.
