The object of this paper is, on one hand, to rethink the freedom of expression in the Digital Age as a «ius communicationis»: a right to communicate which includes the whole communicative process, both active and passive dimension and the rights to spread, seek, receive and access information; and, on the other hand, It would «translate» the guarantees of freedom of expression (in particular prohibition of a previous censorship) to the new means of control (both private and public ones) in Internet.Published online: 23 December 2014
