Communication Rights

DÍA 3 | LÍNEAS BORROSAS | CONVERSACIÓN CLARA

Cuando se trata de las redes sociales, ¿qué tan privado es lo privado y público lo público? Al acceder a los espacios digitales a través de dispositivos, nuestra participación e interacción están mediadas. Nos encontramos en espacios públicos y privados a la vez. Tan sólo tienes que sentarte frente a tu computadora en la oficina o encender el teléfono celular en la intimidad de tu dormitorio para entrar en el mundo en línea.
 

DAY 14 | SEXUALITY & EXPRESSION | SAFER SEXTING

You sent sexy pictures to your partner and suddenly they’re all over the internet. Strangers are creeping on you, your family shames you, your friends reject you and your boss fires you. But you’re an adult, and it was a simple consensual act you both enjoyed. Is digital abstinence the only way to keep your sexual images from being broadcast against your will?
 

Day 13 | STATE SURVEILLANCE | PRIVACY FOR SAFETY

Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights guarantees our right to privacy. The state has a duty to protect and recognise our right to privacy, and this extends to all aspects of our lives, including the digital realm. But governments increasingly insist that we must trade privacy for safety. They say that in order to keep us safe, they must monitor what we do, who we connect with, what we say and so on. They claim to protect our safety rather than our privacy, as though the two are mutually exclusive.
