digital freedom
Unrestricted internet access
Digital freedom is the ability to access, use, and share information online without undue restriction or surveillance.
It encompasses rights like privacy, free expression, and control over one's own data.
Advocates push back against censorship, corporate data harvesting, and government monitoring: Digital freedom is under threat when platforms ban users arbitrarily.
The term often appears in debates over encryption, net neutrality, and platform governance.
