Network authoritarianism refers to governments using network technology to strengthen their control over people.
China is one example, but this is also a global problem.
In the past, many people thought the internet would make society freer.
Now we see that some governments use technology to monitor people and restrict different voices.
Technology companies also expand their markets and make more money by cooperating with governments.
After ordinary people are harmed, it is often difficult for them to prove who was responsible, and it is also difficult to get help.
It is not enough to rely only on governments to regulate large companies.
Without public oversight, governments may also use the law to target people who criticize them.
Protecting everyone’s rights requires making the public aware of the problem, providing places to file complaints, and holding those responsible for harm accountable.
Companies should also collect less user data and protect personal information.
We cannot simply wait for governments and companies to solve the problem, nor should we give up on technology.
Technology workers and civil society organizations in different countries are cooperating to develop internet tools managed jointly by communities, so that people can decide how to use and share information.
In the face of this global problem, people in different countries need to support one another and work together to protect their rights.
