Proud to see digital security awareness reaching the people who handle public data every day. When government staff are trained, the whole community is safer. Big things are happening in Sri Lanka!

Kudos to the digizen trainers for making this happen.

We know "digital rights" can sound like a big, complicated topic, something for lawyers or tech experts.

But here is the simple truth:
If you use WhatsApp, scroll social media, read news online, or just send an email, this affects you.

What happened in Zambia is a reminder that when these conversations get cancelled, ordinary people are the ones who lose out.

Zambia cancelled RightsCon days before it began, stranding 2,000+ delegates. Official reason: security protocols. Real reason: the conference would expose how cybersecurity laws silence journalists. This isn’t a delay—it’s suppression. Cancelling won’t erase the issues. It makes the conversation louder.

⚡ChatGPT knew about a threat. OpenAI didn't tell the police. 8 people died.
