Fernández also has other official public profiles on digital platforms. Among them are Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. He put the magnifying glass on what he considered negative about them. “Everything comes out and there is no control over what comes out. And much of what comes out is hate and misinformation and to this day it has not been possible to regulate that. Being a global communication, also which would be the competent jurisdiction, it is difficult to regulate a global phenomenon, and there is debate about the regulation of communication on the Internet”.
