These manifestations occur both in public spaces and through social media channels, providing a comprehensive understanding of the issue.

It underscores the need for effective strategies and policies to address these issues within the legal framework.
[Originality] This study offers a unique perspective on legal sociology by exploring hate speech within the context of information and electronic transaction laws. It contributes valuable insights that can inform legal practices, policies, and further research in this domain.
