Palestinian digital rights are increasingly threatened by technological advancements that enhance surveillance and military operations. As Israel continues its aggression, tools such as artificial intelligence and facial recognition are being used to target and oppress Palestinians, highlighting a serious violation of digital rights.
Digital rights encompass fundamental freedoms such as internet access, privacy, freedom of expression, and digital security. These rights, recognized in international legal frameworks, are crucial for safeguarding individual liberties in the digital age.
Major tech companies collaborate with Israel, providing technologies that facilitate military operations and surveillance against Palestinians. Partnerships with firms like Google, Amazon, and NSO Group raise ethical concerns regarding their involvement in human rights violations.
The international community must hold tech companies accountable for their role in these violations. Legal actions, legislative measures, and public pressure campaigns can compel these corporations to adhere to ethical standards and respect human rights.
