šŸ“¢šŸ’ŖšŸ»How to be a Digital Rights Advocate?


šŸ“¢šŸ’ŖšŸ» Digital rights are severely under threat in this day and age. Freedom of speech is restricted. Surveillance, especially by authoritarian governments, runs rampant. Cyberbullying and online gender-based violence lead to mental health issues as well as self-censorship. These are just a few problems plaguing our online space, but your actions can help put an end to them.
