Cavaliere's research focuses on the intersection of digital technologies and legal frameworks, with particular expertise in disinformation regulation, freedom of expression in digital environments, media law, and platform governance. His work examines how traditional legal concepts like truth, accuracy, and sovereignty are being redefined in the context of digital platforms and global information ecosystems. He has published extensively on topics including hate speech regulation, content moderation practices, micro-targeting in political campaigns, and the impact of disinformation on democratic processes.
