This study discusses the necessity and possibility of legal regulation of digital educational content in the context of the shift in the concept of content from 'ownership' to 'access'. It argues that digital educational content, like all content, requires regulation to guarantee the right to education, but pre-regulation has limitations and a combination of pre- and post-regulation is needed. The study emphasizes the need for a new approach to ensure the right to education, increase creativity, and protect freedom of expression in the era of digital transformation.
