Joint Civil Society Statement: Cyber Security, Cyber Crime, and Anti-Terrorism Bills at MISA HOUSE on December 5th 2024
The undersigned civil society organisations (CSOs) would like to set out why they are opposed to the enacting of the Cyber Security, Cyber Crimes and Anti-Terrorism Bills currently before Parliament, in their current form.
In opposing the enactment of these Bills and calling for their withdrawal from Parliament, we the undersigned CSOs would like to emphasise that we understand and support the need for regulation of cyber space for the protection of citizens and the nation.
The concern of the CSOs, therefore, is not that the use of cyber space will be overseen by justiciable laws but that the three Bills, as they have been drafted, are in fundamental ways an affront to democracy and citizen rights.
