Globalization leads to technology diffusion, which is inevitably linked to the selling of sensitive surveillance technologies. States and the private sector are close collaborators in the market for digital surveillance tools, which are a part of a new generation of disruptive technologies.
As new technologies filter information, they have the potential to limit the freedom of speech or violate the right to privacy. As such, new means to mitigate their misuse and proliferation, including instruments outside of the box of traditional export control regimes, should be considered.
This chapter explains the role of surveillance technologies and their effects in suppressing the right to privacy and the freedom of speech in a digital age.
