On Media Freedom and Digital Security

New Naratif's Southeast Asia Dispatches

Bonnibel Rambatan talks to Damar Juniarto, Executive Director of SAFEnet, about digital rights and digital security, the increasing judicial harassment of expression in the digital space in Southeast Asia, how various countries try to emulate China's Great Firewall to conduct surveillance and censorship of its people, and how can the people of Southeast Asia fight back the digital authoritarian practices.

Damar Juniarto mentioned lots of things that us listeners can access for our own protection, as well as to share to everyone in our networks who might benefit from it:

• For the fast response team for those under cyber attacks, go to trace.mu
• For an education on online gender-based violence go to awaskbgo.id
• For an education on digital rights, go to padepokan.safenet.or.id
• For an education on digital security, go to digses.safenet.0r.id
• And finally, to assess your own digital vulnerability, go to pakemdiri.safenet.or.id
