A Study of the Landscape of Internet Censorship and Anti-Censorship in Middle East

9 pages•Published: March 9, 2020

Abstract

The power of technology is one which supersedes any other tool of communication ever formulated and implemented by human beings. The internet has been long cited by scholars and practitioners alike to be an empowerment tool that allows individuals to either seek, receive or dole out information and ideas without any basis being drawn on boundaries or geographical locations. This, therefore, means that online communication has to be protected in lieu with the international dictums and pretensions that call for the right to freedom of expression.

Keyphrases: anti censorship, block, censorship, internet, middle east, proxy
