In a world increasingly shaped by technology, the Legal Resources Centre's Democratising Big Tech dives into critical conversations at the intersection of technology, law, and human rights. From the shadowy underbelly of misinformation and disinformation to the pervasive threats of surveillance, hacking, and cybersecurity, this initiative unpacks the pressing issues that impact communities worldwide.
We explore topics like:
- The ethical and legal implications of surveillance technology and spyware.
- How misinformation and disinformation campaigns influence elections, media, and society.
- The systemic challenges of online discrimination, sexism, and xenophobia.
- The balance between privacy rights and national security in the digital age.
Through expert interviews, real-life stories, and legal insights, Democratising Big Tech aims to shed light on how individuals and communities can navigate, challenge, and transform the digital revolution to ensure accountability, transparency, and equity in Big Tech.
Join us to unpack the big questions surrounding Big Tech and chart a path toward a more just, equitable digital future.
