Please join us for the CIPPM Lunchtime Talk by Maria Frabboni and CIPPM’s Marcella Favale, ‘Born Digital: Minors’ Creativity, Social Media, and Copyright’ on the 16th of September 2026 at 12 (Noon) – 1pm UK Time.

While policymakers debate keeping kids off platforms, children are already active authors, generating original content and holding real copyright – long before they can legally understand and sign a Terms of Service agreement.

Drawing on Maria Frabboni’s Born to Be Authors and the forthcoming paper in the International Journal of Law and Information Technology, The Liability Paradox by CIPPM’s Marcella Favale (preprint available here), the discussion will focus on, among other things, the clash between copyright doctrine, platform governance, and children’s rights.

Join us on MS Teams as we challenge the current narrative surrounding young digital creators:
