Navigating the digital landscape, where every interaction matters, the Internet has unfortunately become a space where extremist ideas thrive. In response to these challenges, the EU took a significant step by introducing the  Digital Services Act (DSA) fully applicable since February 2024.  This landmark legislation aims to combat hate speech and disinformation online, promoting a safer digital space. Additionally, the EU has adopted a targeted Regulation on Terrorist Content Online (TCO) in April 2021 to address violent extremism and the dissemination of such content, setting out specific measures that Hosting Service Providers (HSPs) exposed to TCO must implement, results in HSPs, especially small and medium ones facing unique challenges in implementing TCO measures.  This is where the FRISCO project steps in, aiming to not only alleviate the burden on providers but also to create a collaborative ecosystem. Our goal is to foster partnerships and networking opportunities among micro and small HSPs, multiplier associations, industry experts, and state and international stakeholders.
