The Internet as Constitutional Right and Public Utility in Peru: A Critical Perspective

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This paper examines the recent designation of the internet as a constitutional right in Peruvian law, analyzing the relationship between constitutional rights and public services. Generally, not every constitutional right necessitates the creation of a public utility, nor is every public service inherently tied to a constitutional right. As indicated in the legislative record, the constitutional reform recognizing the internet as a right may not yield the anticipated outcomes. The effectiveness and efficiency of such a service cannot be ensured through legal protection alone. Therefore, the establishment of a public service must be grounded in careful planning and foresight, supported by a reasonableness analysis.
