Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights provides the right to Freedom of Expression and Information. A fundamental aspect of this right is the freedom to hold opinions and receive and impart information and ideas, even if the receiver of such information does not share the same opinions or views as the provider. Official Article Definition Limitations to the Freedom of Expression Freedom of Expression is not an absolute right, meaning it is able to be interfered with by states and other public authority bodies. However, each state is allowed a Margin of Appreciation. An acceptance of varying historical, legal, political, and cultural differences, which may lead the application of such freedom to be slightly varied in its nature despite the widespread adoption of the article. Such differences in the application have been allowed as long as the Freedom of Expression is as found in The Observer and The Guardian v United Kingdom (1991)."Narrowly interpreted and the necessity for any restrictions must be convincingly established" by national authorities. Voorhoof and Gannie suggest that for a state to legally interfere with a person's Freedom of Expression they need to pass the 'Triple Test' of conditions in Article 10 (2): such interferences have to be laid out in the nation's national law, be justified through the coverage of one of the objectives listed in the latter half of the section and lastly, necessary in a democratic society. Although by attempting to have a uniform application through the request of the 'Triple Test' and narrow interpretation of the article's content in individual national circumstances it has led some states through a belief the European court is being too stringent to neglect their duties and responsibilities of protection as required by the convention. Importantly, the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) recognises the development and use of the internet to exercise this right and also the restrictions on it also being able to be justified by the same objectives. Similarities and Differences to the US First Amendment Although widely accepted as a right within the European Convention, it is the First Amendment within the US constitution that is synonymous globally with the Freedom of Expression and Speech. Without closer inspection, it could be suggested that both are covering the same right just in differing contexts, however, this would not be an accurate assessment.
